The Gospel of Judas
In this radical reinterpretation, Jesus asks Judas to betray him. In contrast to the New Testament Gospels, Judas Iscariot is presented as a role model for all those who wish to be disciples of Jesus. He is the one apostle who truly understands Jesus.
This volume is the first publication of the remarkable gospel since it was condemned as heresy by early Church leaders, most notably by St. Irenaeus, in 180. Hidden away in a cavern in Middle Egypt, the codex (or book) containing the gospel was discovered by farmers in the 1970s. In the intervening years the papyrus codex was bought and sold by antiquities traders, hidden away, and carried across three continents, all the while suffering damage that reduced much of it to fragments. In 2001, it finally found its way into the hands of a team of experts who would painstakingly reassemble and restore it.
The Gospel of Judas has been translated from its original Coptic in clear prose, and is accompanied by commentary that explains its fascinating history in the context of the early Church, offering a whole new way of understanding the message of Jesus Christ.

If one is a mainline religion believer, one will find this Gospel contrary of one's belief system. Basically, it says that the (lesser)god of thoughs beliefs is the cause of all of the worlds troubles and they are headed for doom. The belief in...

Satisfying and not exciting
If you are a history buff and are curious about Judas' role in changing the world, this book will engage you. It's a bit dry but a good look into Judas' role in the death of Jesus.
