Published for the first time since it was condemned as heresy by early church leaders, the Gospel of Judas is told from the perspective of Judas Iscariot, history's ultimate traitor. However, the Judas that emerges in this volume is a hero, not a villain. The gospel has been translated from its original Coptic into 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.

Comments about The Gospel of Judas, 1st Edition:
This book introduces the Gospel of Judas, the gospel that will link the Bible with Sant Mat, the modern mystic teachings that were brought to us over a hundred years ago in Swami Ji's "Sar Bachan" (available complete online at Scribd). The "Apophasis Logos" that is the incipt's first words are the "Shabd" of Sant Mat, or the "Word said without speaking" from the Greek loanwords. The "region never called by any name" that Jesus tells Judas about is "Anami Desh", "region with no name", from Swami Ji's Sar Bachan, page 26. Judas is the one disappearing into the luminous cloud at the end, WITH Jesus, both merging into the light (that's what new fragments reveal: "Judas stopped gazing at Jesus"). The whole gist of the gospel tallies perfectly with Sant Mat.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
