That maybe Israel is opening their eyes now. To Yeshua Messiah?
It is written that Israel (as a nation) will come to faith in Yeshua Messiah after the fullness of the Gentiles come in. (Well that all Israel will be saved.) And now the Gospel is near preached & published in all nations. And Jesus is even going into Islamic lands & His Blood & His Spirit, even though uninvited by some of the religious leaders.

I like to compare this question with Romans11:25+…lest ye should be wise in our own conceits; that ‘blindness’ in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
& so all Israel shall be saved…
So Israels blindness has to do with the ‘Great Commission’ to spread the Gospel to all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, of the Son & of the Holy Spirit. Then this part blindness comes off’ & all Israel will be saved (have their sins washed away). So? I believe this is significant. All Christians know that it is Jesus blood that is shed for many for remission of sins (of Jews & Gentiles).
Also Paul was writing that pride (conceipts) blamed the Jews for their ‘blindness’. The end happens when the Word of God is published/preached in all nations. Then all Israel is saved…

You wrote: “So? I believe this is significant. All Christians know that it is Jesus blood that is shed for many for remission of sins (of Jews & Gentiles).”
I want to comment about atonement.
(Le-havdil),The same way that is outlined in Tan’’kh about kipur – atonement – was taught by Ribi Yehoshua. Ribi Yehoshua from Nazareth taught in accordance with Tan’’kh the only way to get connection with ha-Sheim.

I read the article, and thank you for the link. My personal opinion is that God is using the current Pope for His purposes in end-time prophecy. I am excited that the Gospel is being preached throughout the world, and I am looking for Christ to return for His Bride at any moment! Let us continue in prayer for all people to accept Christ’s atonement for their sins. God bless you!!!

READ THE BIBLE AND PRAY TO GOD FOR UNDERSTANDING. DON’T LOOK TO THE NATION OF ISREAL AS AN INDICATION OF JESUS SOON RETURN. TRY WHITEHORSEMEDIA.ORG ISREAL’S POSITION AS A CHOSEN PEOPLE ENDED WHEN THEY REJECTED JESUS AS THE MESSIAH. NOW THE GOSPEL IS TO PEOPLE ON A INDIVIVUAL BASIS. THEIR ARE MANY FALSE TEACHINGS ON THIS SUBJECT INCLUDING THOSE BY LEFT BEHIND AND THE LATE GREAT PLANET EARTH.

No.
Changing this prayer in the old Latin Mass to match current Catholic teaching is not very significant.
But it is significant that since Vatican II, the Catholic Church has taught:
When she delves into her own mystery, the Church, the People of God in the New Covenant, discovers her link with the Jewish People, “the first to hear the Word of God.
The Jewish faith, unlike other non-Christian religions, is already a response to God’s revelation in the Old Covenant.
To the Jews “belong the sonship, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises; to them belong the patriarchs, and of their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ”; “for the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.”
Neither all Jews indiscriminately at that time, nor Jews today, can be charged with the crimes committed during the Passion of Jesus Christ. The Jews should not be spoken of as rejected or accursed as if this followed from Holy Scripture.
For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 597 and 839:
With love in Christ.
