Support Letter of the Israeli Scholars to the Christian Communities in Israel

Greetings to members of all Christian communities in Israel,

We, scholars of religion and the humanities at universities and colleges in Israel, wish to express our support in the face of the continual acts of hostility directed at your communities, churches, monasteries, and holy sites. We respect and cherish the time-honored traditions that tie you to the Holy Land and the rich heritage of your communities. The long-standing and uninterrupted presence of Christians in Jerusalem and elsewhere is dear to us. We join you in urging the authorities to take decisive action against the wrongdoers responsible for these offenses, and to protect members of all religions from hatred, ignorance, and violence.

לבני ובנות הקהילות הנוצריות, ברכת שלום.

אנו, חוקרות וחוקרי דתות ומדעי הרוח באוניברסיטאות ובמכללות ברחבי הארץ, מבקשים לחזק את ידיכם אל מול מעשי האיבה המתמשכים כלפי העדות השונות, הכנסיות, המנזרים והמקומות הקדושים לנצרות בירושלים ומחוצה לה. אנו מכירים ומעריכים את המסורות ארוכות השנים הקושרות אתכם לארץ הקודש ולמסורת העשירה של קהילותיכם. הנוכחות הנוצרית העתיקה והמתמשכת בירושלים ובארץ ישראל רצויה ואהובה, ואנו מצטרפים לקריאתכם לרשויות לפעול ביד חזקה כנגד התוקפים ולהגן על בני כל הדתות בישראל באשר הם מפני שנאה, בורות ואלימות. 

تحياتنا لأبناء وبنات الطوائف المسيحية في إسرائيل،

نحن المحاضرون والباحثون في مجالات دراسات الدين والعلوم الإنسانية في الجامعات والكليات في

جميع أنحاء البلاد، نود أن ندعمكم في مواجهة الأعمال العدائية المستمرة ضد مجتمعاتكم وكنائسكم

وأماكنكم المقدسة. ونشارككم في حث السلطات على اتخاذ إجراءات حاسمة ضد المسؤولين عن هذه

الجرائم، وحماية أ الأديان من الكراهية والجهل والعنف. نحن نحترم ونعتز بالتقاليد العريقة َعضاء جميع

التي تربطكم بالأرض المقدسة والتراث الغني لمجتمعاتكم. إن الوجود الطويل الأمد والمتواصل

للمسيحيين في القدس وما بعدها عزيز علينا. 

Προς όλες τις Χριστιανικές κοινότητες του Ισραήλ:

Όλοι εμείς, οι ακαδημαϊκοί που διδάσκουμε θρησκεία και ανθρωπιστικές σπουδές σε 

πανεπιστήμια και κολέγια όλης της χώρας, επιθυμούμε να εκφράσουμε την υποστήριξη και αλληλεγγύη μας προς εσάς, και να δηλώσουμε πως καταδικάζουμε κάθε επίθεση στις κοινότητες, στις εκκλησίες, στα μοναστήρια, και στα ιερά προσκυνήματα σας. Εκφράζουμε τον σεβασμό και την εκτίμηση μας για τις βαθιές παραδόσεις και τους ιστορικούς δεσμούς που σας δένουν με τους Αγίους Τόπους. Η μακροχρόνια και αδιάλειπτη παρουσία των Χριστιανών στην Ιερουσαλήμ και άλλου έχει αξία για εμάς. Ενώνουμε την φωνή μας με τις δικές σας στην έκκληση που κάνετε στις Αρχές για να λάβουν δραστικά μέτρα εναντίων των δραστών αυτών των επιθέσεων, και τις καλούμε να προστατέψουν τα μέλη όλων των θρησκευτικών κοινοτήτων από την μισαλλοδοξία, τον σκοταδισμό, και την βία.

Salutations aux membres de toutes les communautés chrétiennes en Israël,

Nous, chercheurs en études religieuses et en sciences humaines dans des universités et des collèges en Israël, souhaitons exprimer notre soutien face aux actes d'hostilité continus dirigés contre vos communautés, vos églises, vos monastères et vos lieux saints. Nous respectons et chérissons les traditions ancestrales qui vous lient à la Terre Sainte et le riche patrimoine de vos communautés. La présence ancienne et ininterrompue des chrétiens à Jérusalem et ailleurs nous est chère. Nous nous joignons à vous pour demander instamment aux autorités de prendre des mesures décisives contre les auteurs de ces délits et de protéger les membres de toutes les religions contre la haine, l'ignorance et la violence.

Porgendo i saluti ai membri di tutte le comunità cristiane in Israele,

Noi, studiosi di religioni e di scienze umanistiche nelle università e nei college israeliani, desideriamo esprimere il nostro sostegno di fronte ai continui atti di ostilità diretti contro le vostre comunità, chiese, monasteri e luoghi sacri. Rispettiamo e apprezziamo le antiche tradizioni che vi legano alla Terra Santa e il ricco patrimonio delle vostre comunità. Ci è cara la lunga e ininterrotta presenza dei cristiani a Gerusalemme e in altri luoghi. Ci uniamo a voi nell'esortare le autorità a intraprendere azioni decisive contro i colpevoli responsabili di questi reati e a proteggere i membri di tutte le religioni dall'odio, dall'ignoranza e dalla violenza
