Last week Rabbi Shlomo Riskin of Efrat gave lectures in both English and Hebrew in Jerusalem and Efrat respectively on the topic of "Jewish-Christian Dialogue, is it permissible? If so, is it desirable?".

Representatives from Jewish Israel attended the English lecture held in Jerusalem and took notes.

We received an unedited audio tape and have forwarded that along with our initial impressions to our rabbinic director and academic advisors for their review. We should be posting our full commentary in the coming days.
