WASHINGTON (JTA) Washington’s National Cathedral is honoring Elie Wiesel, the Nobel Peace Laureate and Holocaust memoirist, with a bust, the first Jew to be so honored.
Or maybe not the first, depending on where you sit. “I would say he is the first 20th-century Jewish person,” the cathedral’s dean, Rev. Randy Hollerith, said after a reporter asked how Wiesel came to be the first Jew to earn a sculpted depiction at the cathedral.
Asked if he was referring to Jesus and some of the apostles, who also make appearances in statues and in busts in the Washington landmark, Hollerith said yes.
