Judas

More about the book

The biography delves into the complex legacy of Judas Iscariot, traditionally viewed as the ultimate betrayer in the Christian narrative. Peter Stanford examines two millennia of cultural and theological perspectives, suggesting that Judas may have been an unwitting participant in a divine plan essential for Jesus' mission. This exploration raises provocative questions about justice and morality, positioning Judas not merely as a villain but as a pivotal figure in the story of salvation. The book ultimately challenges readers to reconsider their understanding of betrayal and its implications in broader cultural contexts.
