Summary
This volume includes a new edition, translation, and commentary on the Gospel of Judas. Lance Jenott investigates its author's historical setting in the second century, its bitter criticism of the Twelve Apostles as wicked priests, and its potential appeal to later generations of Christians in Egypt who copied the text.
