520 |a This essay analyzes the context and content of the (West) German Catholic Church’s first response to the Shoah in its synod document “Our Hope,” drafted by theologian Johann Baptist Metz, an important example of post-Shoah theology and post-Vatican II renewal. The synod uniquely included the laity and a survey of millions of Catholics, seeking to address the sense of meaninglessness of the time with radically renewed hope and by confessing guilt and reforming central christological teachings. The work on “Our Hope” significantly shaped Metz’s theology and the split between Metz and his contemporary, Joseph Ratzinger. The synod’s focus, on the “other-centered” character of Jesus and the Church, should be reengaged in contemporary interfaith dialogue.
