Truth About Judas Mysteries of the Judas Code Revealed

The National Geographic Expedition discovery of the "New Gospel of Judas" in the spring of 2005 led to enormous renewed interest in the debate over the role of Judas in the Crucifixion of Christ and perhaps more importantly the actual historical foundation of the relationship between Jews, Christians and Muslims. The foundation of anti-Semitism is in large part based on the traditional "Judas as traitor" story which the new gospel suggests was complete fabrication.Author Dr. Yitzhag (Isaac) Hayut-Man has dedicated more than twenty-five years to the study of the role of the historical Judas. In his ground-breaking book THE TRUTH ABOUT JUDAS Hayut-Man explains why Judas is such an important and pivotal character in history and why a re-examination of Judas has unique consequences for the future of world peace and the stability of the Middle East and Jerusalem in particular.THE TRUTH ABOUT JUDAS examines not only the newly discovered Coptic text but also much previous literature related to the role of Judas from THE PASSOVER PLOT by British Biblical scholar Hugh J. Schonfield to the short stories of Argentinean writer Jorge Luis Borges. With an emphasis on the present day importance of dispelling deep-rooted belief-systems which perpetuate the demonization of Jewish people, THE TRUTH ABOUT JUDAS is a book which all thinking Christian and non-sectarian peoples should read, ponder and discuss.Kirby, Richard is the author of 'Truth About Judas Mysteries of the Judas Code Revealed', published 2007 under ISBN 9781933754024 and ISBN 1933754028.
