Nostra Aetate Lecture Series: Father David-Maria Jaeger (2nd Lecture)

Father David-Maria Jaeger, OFM, presented a lecture, entitled "The Catholic Church and the Jewish State," on February 15, 2007. The lecture focused on the relationship between Catholicism and Judaism with a particular focus on the politicized Jewish state and its relationship to the Catholic Church. The lecture was a part of the Nostra Aetate lecture series and was cosponsored by the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs and the Office of the President of Georgetown University. Nostra Aetate (In Our Age) is the "Declaration on the Relation of the Church with Non-Christian Religions" of the Second Vatican Council, promulgated by Pope Paul VI.
