Ripon College, Cuddesdon, recently hosted a CCJ Encounters session for its students training for Anglican ministry.
Encounters Project manager, Fiona Hulbert, presented an 'Introduction to Jewish-Christian relations'. Rabbi Jonathan Wittenberg and Cuddesdon Old Testament tutor, Hywel Clifford, (pictured below) commented together on a text from the book of Exodus.
A final panel discussion also included New Testament tutor, Michael Lakey, and a visiting fellow from the USA, Daniel Joslyn-Siemiatkoski, who is writing a commentary on Mishneh Avot and is part of an Episcopal Commission on anti-Judaism in liturgy.
