ROSH HASHANAH GREETINGS
PICK...THE GREETING OF YOUR CHOICE
Synagogue Council of
America and IJCIC who will
lead the delegation.
The other members, accor-
ding to a Jewish Telegraphic
Agency report, are Seymour
Reich, president of the Bnai
Brith International; Rabbi
Leon Klenicki, director of in-
terfaith affairs of the Anti-
Defamation League of Bnai
Brith; Rabbi Henry Siegman,
executive director of the
American Jewish Congress;
Dr. Geofrey Wigoder of the
Israel Interfaith Committee;
and Gunther Lawrence, a
public relations executive
who will serve as press
officer.
Elie Wiesel, the Nobel
laureate, who had been in-
vited to meet with the pope
privately, said he will delay
his visit until after the
meeting between the pope
and the Jewish delegation so
as not to interfere with their
mission.
The agenda for the meeting
is fluid. Tanenbaum insists
that it would be counter-
productive to discuss the
agenda publicly before its ac-
ceptance by the Vatican. But
he does confirm several key
elements in the proposals be-
ing made to the pope's
representatives. "Certainly,
the question of Vatican
recognition of Israel will be
brought up. This is one
reason for us asking for
Casaroli to be present. We
will also discuss indications of
revisionism in the Church, of
the process of `relativizing'
Jews out of their unique
status as the Nazi's primary
victims. The pope's letter to
the American bishops was an
effort to respond to that —
but it's a little vague in
places.
Tanenbaum hints at one
more broad goal — the
development of a papal en-
cyclical laying out once and
for all the proper relationship
of the Church to the Jewish
community in the wake of the
Holocaust.
"We are exploring this
possibility," he says. "Such
an encyclical would deal with
the Holocaust, the contradic-
tory teachings about
Judaism, and the Church's
relationship with Israel. An
encyclical will not come out of
this meeting; it takes one to
three years to develop an en-
cyclical, if they're serious
about it. But we may be able
to develop an agreement in
principal that such a docu-
ment is necessary. That
would be a very major ac-
complishment for this
meeting, and would affect
Jewish-Catholic relations for
generations to come."
