For the conversion of the Jews.

Let us pray also for the Jews that the Lord our God may take the veil from their hearts and that they also may acknowledge our Lord Jesus Christ.

Let us pray: Almighty and everlasting God, You do not refuse Your mercy even to the Jews; hear the prayers which we offer for the blindness of that people so that they may acknowledge the light of Your truth, which is Christ, and be delivered from their darkness. Through the same our Lord...

Please underline any of the above that is false. This is from the Good Friday prayer that had been said by the Catholic Church since the third century until Pope Benedict XVI changed it.

Here's the prayer the Catholic Church prayed last Good Friday for the Jews:

VI. For the Jewish people

Let us pray also for the Jewish people,
to whom the Lord our God spoke first,
that he may grant them to advance in love of his name
and in faithfulness to his covenant.

Prayer in silence. Then the Priest says:

Almighty ever-living God,
who bestowed your promises on Abraham and his descendants,
hear graciously the prayers of your Church,
that the people you first made your own
may attain the fullness of redemption
Through Christ our Lord.


Please underline any of the above that is false. Or add your hearty Amen.
