Description
Judas: A BiographyWho was Judas Iscariot and why did he betray Jesus? Despite the recent recovery of a Gnostic Gospel bearing his name, the centrality of Judas has gone largely ignored. Yet, because of gaps and incongruities in biblical accounts about him, artists throughout the ages have returned to the twelfth apostle, who inaugurates Jesus' death and resurrection. In this comprehensive, probing book, Susan Gubar explains how Judas came to stand for the Jewish people
Who was Judas Iscariot and why did he betray Jesus? Despite the recent recovery of a Gnostic Gospel bearing his name, the centrality of Judas has gone largely ignored. Yet, because of gaps and incongruities in biblical accounts about him, artists throughout the ages have returned to the twelfth apostle, who inaugurates Jesus' death and resurrection. In this comprehensive, probing book, Susan Gubar explains how Judas came to stand for the Jewish people and how he personifies a composite Judeo-Christianity that illuminates ambivalent relationships between Christians and Jews as well as changing attitudes toward the body, blood, and money; greed and hypocrisy; suicide and repentance; homosexuality and divinity. Over twenty centuries, a figure of disgrace turns into a dignitary. Gubar shows how Jesus' most notorious disciple--known for a kiss--has provoked profound reflections on the problem of evil that still resonate today.Binding Type: Paperback

Dare to believe and be encouraged.
Format: Kindle
This book has increased my faith, and I believe every word written in this book as my spirit bears witness to these writings. All I think about now is visiting heaven, and being able to speak to the saints. The word says we will do the works that Jesus did, and I use to think just about healing, but Jesus did so much more. He raised the dead, walked on water, walked through walls. It's time to think out of the box and into the supernatural.

I often wondered why God took Enoch home before his time was up here on earth. I also wondered who the two witnesses in the book of Revelation would be. I guessed correctly. This book answers those questions by the two witnesses themselves.I enjoyed reading Matthew's book and would recommend it to those who also wonder like me!

Mind-blowing and revealing! Putting the puzzle pieces together with an interview with both Enoch and Elijah to make sense out of the witnesses in Revelation.

Too "out there" for me.
Format: Kindle
Not judging, as I can only speak for myself. Just had to put it down and walk away, because it didn't ring true in my spirit.
