The Church, Israel, and the Jewish people - part 2

The Church, Israel, and the Jewish people - part 2

In this second episode of The Church, Israel, and the Jewish people, Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac confronts the weaponization of antisemitism, clearly distinguishing between genuine anti-Jewish hatred and legitimate moral criticism of Israeli state policies, occupation, and the devastating crisis in Gaza. Highlighting marginalized, non-Zionist Jewish human rights organizations and prophetic voices, Munther exposes the flaws of selective dialogue and calls on the Church to reject harmful, politically driven theology in favor of a gospel rooted entirely in justice, human dignity, and unconditional love.
