The Gothic-style Trivulzio chandler, an early 13th century work of art by an anonymous Anglo-Norman master. It is shaped as a menorah, as a symbol of the passage from the Old Covenant (with the Jews) to the New Covenant (with the Christian Church).
Hebrew Catholics (in modern Israeli Hebrew: עברים קתוליםIvrím Katolím) are a movement of Jews who have converted to Catholicism, and Catholics of non-Jewish origin, who choose to keep Mosaic traditions in light of Catholic doctrine. The phrase was coined by Father Elias Friedman (1987), who was himself a converted Jew. In the Holy Land, they are gathered in the Saint James Vicariate For Hebrew Speaking Catholics in Israel[1]
As of 2013, there were approximately 500 Hebrew Catholics.[2]
