Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis called the Synod's decision regarding the "Kairos II" document "regrettable".

Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis expressed deep concern to Archbishop Sarah Mullally regarding the General Synod's decision to "hear" the document by Palestinian Christians. This decision is causing serious concerns within the framework of interfaith relations.

The document, named "Kairos II", describes Israel's actions in Gaza and the West Bank as "genocide", "apartheid", and "settler colonialism". It calls on churches worldwide to show solidarity with Palestinians, urging them to pay attention to their plight.

Chief Rabbi Mirvis criticized this document as one-sided and containing incorrect information. In his opinion, "Kairos II" poses a serious risk of damaging Jewish-Christian relations, potentially undermining trust and mutual respect between the two communities.
