Reverend Amir Tharwat, pastor of the Evangelical Church in al-Faggala, Cairo, said on Tuesday that Christians in Egypt do not believe that Israel has a right to be called “the Promised Land”.
During an interview with the “Hadith al-Qahera” (Cairo Talk) TV show, Tharwat stressed that Christ is not bound to a specific land, adding that his message is universal and all-encompassing and that the nature of the Law is a gradual process of divine revelation.
Tharwat added that Judaism is not inherently a closed religion, but has been transformed into one.
He pointed out that the Book of Joshua is present in the Christian Bible, and that there is a significant time gap of 3,500 years between Netanyahu and Joshua.
Tharwat explained that Joshua was waging a war of extermination against his enemies, and that declaring victory meant the annihilation of the other people, as was the nature of the times.
He stressed the need to distinguish between the holy text and the agendas currently being used by Jews to exterminate the Palestinian people on their land, affirming that the killing of civilians in war is universally condemned.
Tharwat continued, “Not every Jew is a Zionist; some have spoken out against the killing of civilians and children in the Gaza Strip,” stressing that Jewish people are not necessarily linked to Zionism.
“There are atheist Zionists, and their number is significant,” he noted.
