Except 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. 



INTRODUCTION: INCIPIT 

The secret account of the reflation that Jesus spoke in conversation with Judas Iscariot during a week three days before he celebrated Passover. 
THE EARTHLY MINISTRY OF JESUS 

When Jesus appeared on earth, he performed miracles and great wonders for the salvation of humanity. And since some [walked] in the way of 
righteousness while others walked in their transgressions, the twelve disciples were called. 

He began to speak with them about the mysteries beyond the world and what would take place at the end. Often he did not appear to his disciples as | 
himself, but he was found among them as a child. 

SCENE 1 : 

Jesus dialogues with his disciples: The prayer of thanksgiving or the eucharist. One day he was with his disciples in Judea, and he found them 
gathered together and seated in pious observance. When he [approached] his disciples, [34] gathered together and seated and offering a prayer of 
thanksgiving over the bread, [he] laughed. 

The disciples said to [him], 

"Master, why are you laughing at [our] prayer of thanksgiving? We have done what is right." 
He answered and said to them, 

"I am not laughing at you. <You> are not doing this because of your own will but because it is through this that your god [will be] 
praised." 

They said, "Master, you are [. . .] the son of our god." 

Jesus said to them, "How do you know me? Truly [I] say to you, no generation of the people that are among you will know me." 



THE DISCIPLES BECOME ANGRY 

When his disciples heard this, they started getting angry and infuriated and began blaspheming against him in their hearts. 

When Jesus observed their lack of [understanding, he said] to them, 

"Why has this agitation led you to anger? Your god who is within you and [. . .] [35] have provoked you to anger [within] your souls. [Let] 
any one of you who is [strong enough] among human beings bring out the perfect human and stand before my face." 

They all said, "We have the strength." 

But their spirits did not dare to stand before [him], except for Judas Iscariot . He was able to stand before him, but he could not look him in the eyes, 
and he turned his face away.
