Description:Text transcribed from caption: J-46602 REFORM JUDAISM PRODUCES COMMENTARY ON TORAH NEW YORK -- Rabbi W. Gunther Plaut of Holy Blossom Temple, Toronto, examines Volume I of the first commentary on the Torah ever to be produced by Reform Judaism in North America. Done under the auspices of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, the Commentary on Genesis took four years to produce. Rabbi Plaut wrote the commentary with the assistance of Professors Stanley Gevirtz and William W. Hallo of Yale University and Matitiahu Tsevat of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. Although every program of Jewish education teaches Torah, few texts combine the elements of Hebrew, translation and commentary in the manner of the new work. Each book of the Torah is divided into six sections -- an introductory note, the original Hebrew, the new translation of the Jewish Publication Society, a brief commentary on the text with a discussion of the section’s major theme or themes, and a section of “Gleanings.” The gleanings are quotations and excerpts from a wide variety of sources, including the Koran and the writings of such literary figures as Shakespeare and John Milton. “This commentary takes the religious approach,” Rabbi Plaut said. “It recognizes the touch of the Divine, but it also takes cognizance of the latest scientific research. It represents the teaching tradition of Israel.” He explained that “our commentary disagrees with traditional interpreters over divine origin and Mosaic authorship, but it does agree with them on treating the text as it is, a unified whole, for it was approached this way by many generations and, in this way, it has made its impact on history.” Volume I of the commentary, published Jan. 15, will be available at $12.50 in hardcover and $7.50 in paperback.

Description:Text transcribed from caption: J-46546 SENATORS SEE UN HURT BY PLO VOTE WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Seven of the 71 Senators who sent a letter to President Ford saying that United Nations support for the Palestine Liberation Organization undermined the world body as well as U.S. foreign policy discuss the letter during a Capitol Hill news conference. From left to right are Senators Clifford Case (R-N.J.), Henry Jackson (D-Wash.), Jacob Javits (R-N.Y.), Hubert Humphrey (D-Minn.), Richard Schweiker (R-Pa.), Abraham Ribicoff (D-Conn.) and Howard Metzenbaum (D-Ohio). The letter said the recent U.N. events “dramatize the need for the United States to take the lead in organizing our friends and allies to resist political and economic blackmail in the future. We do not believe that a policy of appeasement will be any more successful now than it proved to be in the nineteen-thirties.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (A-WAS-12C-74-DS)Creator:Wide World Photos, Inc.

Description:Text transcribed from caption: C-46641 HITS PHILIPPINES ‘RESTRICTIVE’ PROBATION MARYKNOLL, N.Y. -- A U.S. Roman Catholic missionary to the Philippines, who recently escaped deportation but was placed on “restrictive” probation in Manila for three years, has called his situation “unjust,” according to a report from Maryknoll headquarters. Father Edward Gerlock, M.M., a missionary in the Philippines for some 12 years, said, “I feel like a man who expects to die but only gets a broken leg. But I wouldn’t advocate getting broken legs as a good thing.” In October 1973, the priest was arrested in Mindanao and charged with being critical of the government’s martial law policies and giving support to the illegal Federation of Free Farmers. During the 16 months since his arrest, a period in which he was placed in the custody of his superior in Manila, church leaders throughout the Philippines rallied to his cause.

Description:Text transcribed from caption: C-46639 IDAHO ‘DISSIDENT’ CATHOLICS APPEAL COURT RULING COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho -- A group of dissident Catholics, who reject Pope Paul and the teachings of Vatican II and who now live an austere, devotional life in Northern Idaho, has appealed a court ruling in Ohio awarding $96,000 in judgements to two men who claimed the movement alienated their wives. The appeal was filed by lawyers for Our Lady of Fatima Crusade, which is based at the farm-centered City of Mary near Rathdrum, Idaho, about 20 miles northwest of Coeur d’Alene. It asked that the judgements against the Crusade and its leader, the non-accredited Bishop Francis Schuckardt (right photo), be set aside. Two brothers, Joseph and Henry Radecki of Toledo, Ohio, won the judgements after claiming in a suit in Lucas County (Ohio) court that the Crusade and Bishop Schuckardt alienated the affections of their wives by inducing them to leave their husbands and join the Idaho Crusade. The Crusade is often mistakenly linked with the Blue Army of Our Lady of Fatima, based in Washington, N.J. According to the local Coeur d’Alene newspaper, Bishop Schuckardt was once international secretary of the Blue Army, but broke away and founded the Fatima Crusade in 1967. A spokesman for the Blue Army said that Bishop Schuckardt’s claim of having been international secretary of the Blue Army is “false,” and that he worked for the Blue Army briefly as a developer of Blue Army “cells” around the country, but was eventually “fired.” He said that Bishop Schuckardt was a layman and not a priest, and had no idea how the Crusade leader received the title of bishop. Bishop Sylvester Treinen of Boise, whose diocese encompasses all of Idaho, has declared that because the Fatima Crusaders reject Pope Paul they can no longer be considered members of the Roman Catholic Church. At left, women members of the Crusade, dressed in long peasant-type costumes, stand and kneel outside the church in the City of Mary. Crusade members reportedly show special devotion to the Virgin Mary and follow literally the contents of the “Fatima message,” and strenuously object to the use of the vernacular in the Mass. They are strongly anti-Communist, reject public schools, discourage recreational activities, stress spiritual development, operate their own “Catholic” schools, and encourage members to become “sisters” and “brothers.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RVJ-IDA-1C-75-DS)Creator:Jones, Robert V.

Description:Text transcribed from caption: C-46614 FIRST WOMAN AMBASSADOR TO THE VATICAN VATICAN CITY -- In a precedent-shattering move, Pope Paul has accepted the nomination of a woman as an ambassador to the Vatican. The pontiff agreed to receive the credentials of Bernadette Olowo, 27, named by President Idi Amin as Uganda’s envoy to the Holy See. The Pope’s decision breaks what is believed to be a 900-year-old unwritten tradition barring women from becoming official representatives at the Vatican. Miss Olowo, a secretary in Uganda’s embassy in Bonn, will also serve as Ambassador to West Germany, where she will reside. Roman Catholics in Uganda number about 3.5 million out of a total population of 10,764,000. Church-state relations have been erratic under the regime of Muslim President Amin, who has shown both benevolence and hostility toward the Church.

Edelin (right), a Boston City Hospital physician charged with manslaughter in the death of an aborted fetus, looks on as his attorney, William Homans, talks with reporters outside Suffolk Superior Court in Boston where his trial is taking place. Dr. Edelin is charged with manslaughter for allegedly assaulting and killing a fetus 24 to 28 weeks old. The case could produce a potential landmark decision on the viability of a fetus and when it becomes entitled to legal protection, a key issue left unresolved in the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 decision. The Supreme Court ruled that state governments can forbit only abortions “subsequent to viability.” However, it would only state “viability is usually placed at about seven months (28 weeks), but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (B-BOS-1B-75-DS)Creator:United Press International.

Description:Text transcribed from caption: C-46580 PRELATES SERVE AS MEDIATORS WITH GUERRILLAS MANAGUA, Nicaragua -- Holding a briefcase believed to contain ransom money, Archbishop Gabriel Montalvo, Papal Nuncio to Nicaragua, prepares to enter the house where leftist Nicaraguan guerrillas were holding hostages. He and Archbishop Miguel Obando Bravo, S.D.B., of Managua (right, obscured by soldier), who had figured prominently in negotiations between the guerrillas and the Nicaraguan government, were part of a four-man team of volunteers used to guarantee the safe arrival in Cuba of eight guerrillas and 14 freed political prisoners. The guerrillas, members of the Sandinista Liberation Front, shot their way into a party honoring U.S. Ambassador Turner Shelton, killing the host and three guards posted outside. They threatened to kill the hostages, one by one, beginning on New Year’s Day, if their demands for $5 million ransom and the release of 18 political prisoners were not met. Archbishop Obando Bravo acted as go-between and managed to secure the release of 24 of the hostages. The government paid a $1 million ransom and released 14 political prisoners in exchange for the remaining 13 hostages. The two prelates along with the Mexican and Spanish ambassadors, then flew to Cuba with the guerrillas and freed prisoners.

Title:Description:Text transcribed from caption: C-46568 DOUBLES AS A DEALER LAS VEGAS -- Father Thomas Higgins, S.J., can usually be found on the campus of Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, where he is an assistant chaplain and a professor. But during the Summer and school vacations, he can be found at the Royal Inn Casino in Las Vegas, where he is a blackjack dealer. The 42-year-old Jesuit priest feels he is carrying his message to the people. “You can’t preach Christ if your experience is entirely different from that of other people,” he says. “If priests were cab drivers or bus drivers or if they took different jobs, they would be much more to all kinds of people.” Father Higgins’ customers at the casino get his good counsel, although they seldom find out that the man behind the red satin tie is a priest. “Sometimes I tell people, ‘You’re drunk. Why don’t you go home? You’re going to drop your whole load,’” he said. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (A-LA-12D-74-DS)Creator:Wide World Photos, Inc.
