The Synod of Bishops, which concluded today at the Vatican, dedicated to the Middle East entitled "The Catholic Church in the Middle East: Communion and a witness," was criticized by many in the media have expressed strong positions anti-Israeli.
On the sheet of October 23, 2010 I read a speech by Father Rino Rossi hopeful and possible union with the Jews who are certainly more than the brothers of Muslims and Christians also (like it or not it is).
was reported for a common consolation
in peace with Israel in the name of Jesus
The citadel overlooking neocatecumenale Lake "Tiberias"
Rome. "Every visit to the Domus Galilaeae many Jews started to come back and visit us. Socrso year alone it has been more than a hundred thousand ... We feel that we should welcome them and serve them as brothers. " Said, speaking at the Synod on the Middle East, Father Rino Rossi, manager of the Domus Galilaeae since 2003, the center for the training of missionaries Neocatechumenal that stands on the Mount of Beatitudes, not far from Lake Tiberias. It was consecrated in 2000, while he was still under construction, by John Paul II, and since then has never stopped being a symbol of friendship between the movement founded by the Spaniard Kiko Argilello and the people Jewish (from the project, the architect of Argentina's father and Mochly Haifa Dan Daniel Cevilan). To the extent that the Domus, painted by the same Argüello, someone has seen fit to criticize excessive contamination, the exposure of a Torah from the fifteenth century, the candlestick of Hanukkah, or the prayer-song "Shemah Israel," who embraced visitors.
Al sheet, Father Rossi explained that the Neocatechumenal "is in close contact with both local churches and the Jewish reality, which gave us a warm welcome. Of course it was crucial to the visit of Pope John Paul II, and the opportunity that was given to us to organize the large mass Mount of Beatitudes, next to the Domus. For the first time any Israeli television handed a Christian ceremony quell'imponenza, with more than one hundred thousand people gathered. " The Jewish symbols in the Domus Galilaeae, Father Rossi explains, "they say we need to go to our roots and make the center the word of God, as recommended by the Second Vatican Council. This leads us to rediscover our fundamental connection with the Jewish people and its traditions. Jesus Christ is jew and we can not understand his preaching in the New Testament do not know if the Old. The Neocatechumenal is placed in the wake of the Council, then the teachings of John Paul II and Benedict XVI. "
E 'some misunderstanding happened, his father tells Rossi: "Some Arabs are outraged by the Decalogue of Moses in Hebrew carved in marble at the entrance of our library. But that's a point at the crucial moment we are experiencing. Our European culture stems from Judeo-Christian roots, but now wants to forget the new European order that root, and try to introduce rules that are completely contrary to (the family, for example). The way of life revealed by God on Mount Sinai with the Ten Commandments, was taken by Jesus on the Mount of Beatitudes, with what is at the heart of his preaching the Sermon on the Mount. " In that circumstance, concludes the head of the Domus Galilaeae, "Jesus repeats the Torah, but did not abolish the door to fulfillment, love those who hate you, he says. The Domus was highlighted something that we have in common with Judaism: the task of creating that content, a matter of life or death for the future world. "
