The community of all baptized persons acknowledges the divinity of Christ and lives in a way that conforms to the teachings of God for the good of all people. In 1947, Pope Pius XII stated the matter of Holy Orders was to be understood as the bishop’s imposition of hands over the priest – thus signifying clearly that ordination was the consecration of the whole person for a life of holiness and service to the Church, and not simply the assigning of and empowering for specific sacramental duties. “The divinely instituted ecclesiastical ministry is exercised in different degrees by those who even from ancient times have been called bishops, priests, and deacons.” Lumen Gentium states the three degrees are: episcopate, presbyterate and deaconate. These degrees are exercised by bishops, priests and deacons. (#32 ) St. Ignatius of Antioch said, Let everyone revere the deacons as Jesus Christ, the bishop as the image of the Father, and the presbyters as the senate of God, and the assembly of the apostles.

From a tiny coastal enclave on an untamed continent, we have grown into the mightiest, freest nation in human history. A civilization whose farthest reach was once the earth's uncharted seas has now plumbed the secrets of outer space. But the fundamental meaning of Thanksgiving still remains the same. It is a time when the differences of a diverse people are forgotten and all Americans join in giving thanks to God for the blessings we share­ the blessings of freedom, opportunity and abundance that make America so unique.

Were there differences in the reactions of Christians to the 1967 and 1973 conflicts in the Middle East? Were there significant differences in the response of Christian institutions, individual Christian leaders, and the Christian people in the pews? These questions—which are important to Jewish-Christian dialogue because the security and well-being of the people and the State of Israel figure so centrally in Jewish consciousness today-- have been widely discussed in recent months in many parts of the Jewish and Christian communities in the United States and abroad. In some instances, the discussions have obscured rather than illuminated these crucial questions in the Jewish-Christian relationship because there has been so little solid, objective data available on which to base conclusions. In order to help meet the need for accurate information, the Interreligious Affairs Department of the American Jewish Committee has prepared this detailed account of various Christian responses to the October 1973 conflict both in the United States and abroad.
