      • 300 pages
      • 11 hours of reading

      Challenging traditional narratives, this work presents a compelling argument that Judas did not betray Jesus and that the Jewish priests were not responsible for his execution.

The plot thickens with Herod Antipas, who, fearing Jesus' influence, pressured Pilate to break the agreement and execute him. This groundbreaking study addresses historical inconsistencies and critiques the portrayal of Jewish involvement in Jesus' death.
