Description:
This pamphlet establishes the criteria for evaluating depictions of the passion of Christ, and stresses the appropriate presentation of passion plays. It quotes Pope John Paul II's statement that Catholic teaching should aim to present "Jews and Judaism, not only in an honest and objective manner ... but also with full awareness of the heritage common [to Jews and Christians]." Opens directly into a PDF file. From the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
