Abstract
This paper focuses on Metropolitan Georges Khodr's long-standing and unwavering commitment to the Palestinian cause and the defense of Palestinian rights. Beginning in the early 1950s and extending through the second decade of the twenty-first century, his writings, speeches, and public interventions consistently articulated a theology rooted in justice, human dignity, and solidarity with oppressed peoples.
Through theological reflection, public advocacy, and participation in regional and international conventions, Metropolitan Khodr developed a Christian discourse that engaged political realities without reducing faith to ideology, while affirming the moral responsibility of the Church toward historical and contemporary injustices. The paper further explores how his thought shaped generations of students, clergy, and intellectuals who later became influential figures in theological, cultural, and political arenas. His legacy is thus understood not only through his texts but as a living tradition transmitted through teaching, mentorship, dialogue, and sustained public engagement. By reflecting on his influence on our own intellectual formation, the paper highlights the enduring relevance of his vision for contemporary debates on Palestine, justice, and the role of theology in the public sphere.
