Deicide At The Second Vatican Council

Vatican II was largely, and perhaps most famously, about Deicide - a massive media campaign blitzed the Council Fathers to promote a change in Catholic teaching - nothing less than the exoneration of the Jews of complicity in the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. This is the story of the struggle and failure by Jewish groups, and of Bishop Luigi Carli, chairman of the commission which reworked the rejected Declaration on the Jews for Pope Paul VI. Bishop Carli's articles written while the Council was on-going were "lost" until finally located by Professor von Peters and translated into English. This work showcases Bishop Carli's articles, giving the good Bishop's own thoughts, research and reasons for rejecting the original Declaration. Carli, later an Archbishop, was Pope Paul VI's man to settle the questions of deicide, rejection of the Jews, etc. Supplementary materials highlight the struggle.
