Papa se susreo sa židovskim rabinima
 
VATICAN CITY – Pope Francis met on Monday with a delegation of rabbis headed by Pinchas Goldschmidt, the chief rabbi of Moscow, to discuss the religious rights of Jews in Europe amid a rise in extremist violence. The meeting with representatives of the Conference of European Rabbis took place during a period of mourning in Rome for the death of Elio Toaff, longtime chief rabbi of Rome who died late Sunday aged 99. Francis called Toaff “a man of peace and dialogue” and said Monday’s encounter was carrying on the work of Toaff and Francis’s predecessor, John Paul II, who made great strides in strengthening relations between the two faiths.

Vatikan. Papa Franjo se u ponedjeljak susreo sa delegacijom rabina pod vodstvom Pinchasa Goldschmidtha, glavnog rabina u Moskvi, kako bi diskutirali religijska prava Židova u Europi , u svijetlu povećanog nasilja ekstremista. 


Sastanak se predstavnicima Konferencije Europskih Rabina  ( koja okupčja preko  700 europskih rabina) se odigrao u vrijeme  komemoriranja   smrti  Elio Toaffa, dugogodipnjeg rabina u Rimu,  koji je umro u nedjelju u starosti od 99 godina. Papa Franjo je nazvao Toaffa "čovjekom mira i dijaloga",  koji je za vrijeme prethodnog pape Ivana Pavla II surađivao u jačanju odnosa između dvije vjere. Spomenuta je 50-godišnjica "Nostra Aetate" koja će biti u listopadu. taj dokument koji je donio Drugi vatikanski Koncil  je " formalna deklaracija odnosa Katoličke crkve prema nekrrščanskim religijama" i koja je ključna za preokret u odnosima između Katolika i Židova.

“This year, 2015, we celebrate 50 years of ‘Nostra Aetate’ with the declaration that the church, in her rejection of every persecution against any man, mindful of the patrimony she shares with the Jews and moved no by political reasons, but by the Gospel’s spiritual love, decries hatred, persecutions, displays of anti-Semitism, directed against Jews at any time and by anyone,” Goldschmidt said....


Francis stressed the common spiritual bond between Jews and Catholics, noting that Europe is “increasingly marked by secularism and threatened by atheism.”  Francis told the rabbis: “Jews and Christians together have the responsibility of preserving a sense of the sacred and reminding people that their lives are a gift from God.”

Francis said the Shoah, which ended 70 years ago this year, should remain a strong warning for present and future generations to avoid anti-Semitism.
