"Judas" is synonymous with "traitor." But a newly discovered
ancient text of the Gospel of Judas offers a picture of Judas
Iscariot radically different from the Church's traditional
understanding of him, and maintains that far from being the
infamous betrayer, Judas was actually Jesus's trusted friend and
the recipient of secret revelation. Simon Gathercole's new book
includes a translation of the ancient Egyptian text of the Gospel
of Judas and a running commentary, and offers new translations of
all the ancient evidence about Judas Iscariot and the Gospel
attributed to him. It gets behind the hype which the Gospel of
Judas has attracted, and looks at why the group which produced the
work were in such bitter conflict with the mainstream Christian
church, and shows how the document provides us with a window into
the turbulent world of Christianity and Gnosticism in the century
after Jesus.
