Representatives of the Orthodox church and of world Judaism met for a two-day seminar in Luzern last week to review theological matters and possible cooperation between them. It is the first such meeting to be held and the participants decided to meet again. The Jewish delegation was headed by Dr. Lutz Erhlich. B’nai B’rith director for continental Europe. The meeting was organized by the Orthodox Center of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Geneva and the International Jewish Committee for Inter-Religious Consultations.
