Some Halachic Points of View
See also: Halakha and Dual-covenant theologyAccording to Bloomer (2008) "There is a broad range of Jewish Catholics. From those who observe nothing much of the Jewish ways up to those who observe the same as Orthodox Jews. There are many different opinions but they all try to accept each other, whatever their level of observance."
Furthermore, Fr. David Neuhaus (2008), a priest of the Jewish Hebrew-speaking Catholics in Jerusalem and himself a Jew by birth, declares: "Dietary laws are not obligatory for those who live in Christ. I would only understand dietary laws being observed by Jewish Hebrew Catholics if they had always practised these laws before becoming Catholic. It certainly does no harm. But adopting the laws as Catholics (or as secular Jews who have become Catholic) does not make much sense as we have the fullness of the promise in Jesus."
