Abstract
"'The Lambeth Conference of 400 Anglican bishops is to be urged to repudiate attempts to convert Jews to Christianity'. So wrote Clifford Longley in the Times on July 11th 1988 commenting on remarks made by the Bishop of Oxford, the Right Reverend Richard Harries. Dr Harries was chairman of the group which prepared the official draft for a declaration on behalf of the world-wide Anglican Communion. This draft entitled Jewish-Christian Guidelines for the Anglican Communion was presented to the Lambeth Conference for its approval. In the event the report was not accepted by the Bishops in its original form. It was considerably reduced and significantly altered. Those alterations are important as they show what the Bishops were not prepared to approve as well as what they were prepared to accept"
