The very name of Judas raises among Christians an instinctive reaction of criticism and condemnation. The betrayal of Judas remains a mystery. This book sheds new light on the mystery of Judas including his motives for the betrayal and what happened to him after the crucifixion by retelling the story of Jesus through the eyes of Judas. Ostensibly written by Judas's son, Benjamin, and following the narrative style of the Gospels, this re-creation is both compelling and controversial.
