Vatican Official: We Need to Learn More From Jews on Role of Shabbat, Family https://www.algemeiner.com/2016/05/19/vatican-official-we-need-to-learn-more-from-jews-on-role-of-shabbat-family/
“The most important thing we can learn from the Jewish people is first of all it’s a religion not of the synagogue but of the home, the family,” Cardinal Kurt Koch told the publication during a two-day symposium with leading theologians from both faiths.
The Cardinal, who is President of the Commission of the Holy See for Religious Relations with the Jews, said he is positive that Jewish survival is “rooted in the family” and the “clear tradition of Shabbat.” He also noted that “family and Shabbat are two main challenges for Christianity,” and that the Sunday “culture in Christianity is very weak.”
