Pope Exonerates Jews for Death of Christ

The Takeaway

In a new book, “Jesus of Nazareth: Part II,” Pope Benedict exonerates the Jewish people for the death of Jesus Christ. But why has it taken thousands of years to absolve the Jewish community of this crime? And does this say something about the evolving relationship between Jews and Catholics?  We talk with Rabbi Brad Hirschfield, president of Clal, The National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership. He is also the author of “You Don’t Have to be Wrong for Me to be Right.”
