Letter from Metropolitan Nicolae Bălan to the Romanian Ministry of Religions about Law 711 banning the conversion of Jews, April 2, 1941.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This letter war written by Metropolitan Nicolae Bălan as reaction to Law 711 banning the conversion of Jews passed by the Romanian Government in 1941. It is interesting because while protesting against what he perceives as an unacceptable interference of the State in matters of faith, Bălan also displays his own antisemitic views. In the second part of the letter he advises the State to ban all mixed marriages, including those involving converts from Judaism.
