- Notes
- "Paul writes in Romans that, while beloved because of the patriarchs, as far as the gospel is concerned, Israel is our enemy. In 2 Corinthians 3:14-15, he points out that 'to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts', and that 'only in Christ is it taken away'." "I would suggest that political Zionism since the late 19th century has done more to perpetuate anti-Semitism against both Arab and Jew more than any prayer we might offer".
