Lutheran Teachings On Anti-Semitism New York (JTA)— After repudi- ating its founder's virulently anti- Jewish attitudes last spring, the main Lutheran church in Amer- ica is beginning to teach its ad- herents about anti-Semitism and Martin Luther's role in promot- ing it. The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, which claims 5.2 million of this country's esti- mated 8 million Lutherans as members, adopted a declaration last April rejecting Luther's anti- Semitism. Last week, the group's Con- sultative Panel on Lutheran-Jew- ish Relations met to map out a two- to five-year plan for imple- menting the new teachings. The church's first step, ac- cording to Franklin Sherman, chair of that panel, will be to make available to its 11,000 af- filiated congregations study ma- terials on Luther's anti-Jewish attitudes. After that, the movement will work to implement the new teachings at its seminaries. "The study materials will deal with the period of the Reforma- tion and try to explain to Luther- ans the whole history of anti-Jewish teachings within the Christian tradition, and Luther's role in them," said Mr. Sherman, who is also director of the Insti- tute for Jewish-Christian Un- derstanding at Muhlenberg College, in Allentown, Pa. Unique among schools in North America with ties to the Lutheran Church, Muhlenberg has a sizable minority of Jews, who make up about 20 percent of its student body. About a week before Mr. Sher- man's panel met, the Lutheran Church held a service of confes- sion and a Lutheran-Jewish con- vocation near Chicago, where the church is headquartered. On Nov. 13, after a service of confession at Grace Lutheran Church in River Forest, Ill., Bish- op Sherman Hicks of the Metro- politan Chicago Synod led about 200 Lutherans in a procession to the nearby West Suburban Tem- ple Har Zion. There, before an audience of approximately 450 Jews and Lutherans, Bishop Hicks pre- sented a large plaque inscribed with a copy of the church's dec- laration repudiating Luther's teachings to two Jewish repre- sentatives. They were Rabbi Peter Kno- bel, president of the Chicago Board of Rabbis, and Maynard Wishner, president of the Coun- cil of Jewish Federations. Bishop Hicks expressed sorrow for his church's sins. "We confes- sour sins. We repent for the wrong that has been done. We ask for forgiveness. As a bishop of the church, it is with humili- ty and gratitude that I present this declaration to the Jewish community," he said. It was, said participants, a highly dramatic and emotional ceremony. "To probe the deepest recess- es of one's spiritual tradition and to discover an anti-Jewish bias so painful, so raw, and so dis- turbing, is an act of courage," Rabbi A. James Rudin, national director of interreligious affairs at the American Jewish Com- mittee, said in his remarks at the service. This kind of convocation may be replicated by other Lutheran and Jewish communities around the country, Rabbi Rudin said. The church's new stance is an effort to reconcile contradictory beliefs. Protestant reformer Martin Luther, who lived from 1483 to 1546, wrote several essays, in- cluding the 1543 tract About the Jews and Their Lies, condemn- ing Jews for not converting to Christianity. He advocated that their synagogues be burned and their books confiscated, and that they be forbidden from teaching. If they still refused to convert, Luther wrote, "then we must dri- ve them out like mad dogs, lest we partake in their abominable blasphemy and vices, deserving God's wrath and being damned along with them." His teachings have been quot- ed as justification by anti-Semi- tes throughout history, and were used most notably by Adolf Hitler. It was, in fact, a film shown at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Mu- seum in Washington about the roots of anti-Semitism that in part led to the repudiation last spring. Several leaders of the Ameri- can Lutheran Church visited the museum and viewed the film. In the film, woodcuts made of Luther during his lifetime and anti-Semitic caricatures of Jews from the same era are projected on the screen, while Luther's anti-Semitic words are voiced over the images and a narrator
