The Lost Gospel of Judas


Interesting, as it sounds like the hidden codes of the bible, but it is not. It may boggle your beliefs and old-kwowings as it is really one of the most significant biblical findings of the century. Not advisable to read, but wonderfully knowing the facts and basis.

Read on, copied below is a brief summary from the link I have just received and personally watched from the net.

The National Geographic Society has been part of an international effort, in collaboration with the Maecenas Foundation for Ancient Art and the Waitt Institute for Historical Discovery, to authenticate, conserve, and translate a 66-page codex, which contains a text called James (also known as First Apocalypse of James), the Letter of Peter to Philip, a fragment of a text that scholars are provisionally calling Book of Allogenes, and the only known surviving copy of the Gospel of Judas.

The Gospel of Judas gives a different view of the relationship between Jesus and Judas, offering new insights into the disciple who betrayed Jesus. Unlike the accounts in the canonical Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, in which Judas is portrayed as a reviled traitor, this newly discovered Gospel portrays Judas as acting at Jesus' request when he hands Jesus over to the authorities....
