1. Hope
As the Jewish celebration of Pesach and the Christian Feast of Easter approach, some members of the ICCJ’s Theology Committee offer the following reflections on “hope”. Given the nature of Pesach and Easter, these are different from earlier reflections offered towards the end of last year for Hannukah and Christmas. Each contribution below leads to a question that ivites deeper reflection on “hope”. The question might be helpful for personal reflection or in conversation with others.
2. Liberation
Liberation is one of the key themes connected to both Pesach and Easter. A group of members of ICCJ Theology Committee has explored this theme in relation to scripture, theological tradition, and some other important themes. The output of this process can be found below: a set of short essays written by authors from different contexts and from both Jewish and Christian perspectives.
