Marëdhëniet e Kishës Orthodhokse me popullin hebre

[Manulaki]

Ne kete teme thjesht dua te kerkoj informacion (nuk deshiroj asnje lloj debati) ne lidhje me qendrimin e Kishes Orthodokse ndaj hebrenjve.
Njoh me mire qendrimin e kishave protestante dhe evangjeliste, si edhe te asaj katolike.
Do te doja qe te sillej ne kete teme informacion i bazuar ne Fjalen e Perendise, Traditen dhe mesimet e te pareve.
Faleminderit.

Gjithashtu lutem qe ky informacion te vije vetem nga orthodokse dhe jo nga te tjere dhe ju lutem te mos nxitet debat nese qendrimi eshte i drejte apo i padrejte!

Nuk e di se ben, por e kisha ne dore kur e kerkove, keshtu qe... shif e bej

Greece's involvement in patriarchate concerns Israel

By Lily Galili

Israeli government officials are troubled by the apparent deepening of Greece's involvement in the affair of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in Jerusalem. Officials have complained that while Israel is holding off on deciding the fate of Patriarch Irenios I, who is no longer recognized by most of the Greek Orthodox world, it has given Greece an opening to intervene by funneling funds to sustain the paralyzed patriarchate and establishing regulations governing its continued functioning.

Those same Israeli officials consider this a dangerous precedent that might lead to greater involvement by the entire European Union in matters previously arranged between Israel and the churches.

Now that Jordan has officially removed its support for Irenios, the next step awaits the results of a probe by Minister Tzachi Hanegbi. Israeli officials have admitted that Israel finds it difficult to help oust the patriarch, because the grounds are his suspected involvement in a deal to sell church property in Jerusalem's Old City.

However, in response to a request from Irenios to "restore order to the patriarchate," Interior Minister Ophir Pines-Paz expressed candid doubts that he would be able to remain in his post.

The other churches in Israel are also concerned - by what they perceive to be Israel's overinvolvement in a church's internal matters. A senior official of the Catholic Church told Haaretz: "If Israel intervenes like this in the affairs of the most powerful and richest church, in the future it might intervene likewise in ours. We are worried in following the developments in Israel, as well as Greece's conduct in the matter. We are concerned that after it gains control of the patriarchate, [Greece] will not let any other political entity maintain a foothold - not just Israel, but also Jordan

Relations between the Russian Orthodox Church and Judaism: Past and Present
By Yuri Tabak

One can only guess at the views of the church hierarchy on the Christian-Jewish question. However, there are moments when the veil of secrecy is lifted: Metropolitan Kirill of Smolensk and Kaliningrad, an educated man, a gifted orator and experienced administrator who is widely tipped to be the next patriarch, unexpectedly announced at an evening dedicated to the memory of Anne Frank that the suffering and death of Jews during the Second World War had an 'atoning significance' (Kratkaya Evreiskaya Entsyklopedia, vol. 6, p.742)
Mainly for their 'pro-Catholic', 'ecumenical' and 'reformist' views. See 'Russkaya mysl', 24-30 October 1994, pp 8-9.
Only archpriest Vitali Borovoy (who incidentally belongs to the more conservative circles in the church) has tried to find the reasons for the sin of antisemitism in the Orthodox church tradition. See V. Borovoy 'Christian Orthodoxy in the Modern World' in Orthodox Christians and Jews on Contiunity and Renewal, Immanuel 26/27, Jerusalem 1994. Other Orthodox authors, many of whose views we share (A. Kyrlezhev, 'Zachem evreii khristianam?', 'Evreiskaya gazeta', No.1-2, 1994; V.N. Toporov, op.cit.), skirt round this question and are led by their own personally-held theological opinions.
