WOW ! The Holy Scriptures cannot be used to justify the return of Jews to Israel and the displacement of the Palestinians,” Bustros said at the close of a two-week conference in Rome, Italy, “to justify the occupation by Israel of Palestinian lands.” The Archbishop then questioned the biblical idea of a “promised land” set aside by a specific group of people. We Christians cannot speak of the promised land as an exclusive right for a privileged Jewish people,” Bustros continued. This promise was nullified by Christ. There is no longer a chosen people – all men and women of all countries have become the chosen people.
