Judas and the Gospel of Jesus

The 'Gospel of Judas' was discovered in the 1970's and took nearly 30 years to reach the public domain and critical analysis. Now Tom Wright turns his attention to this fascinating manuscript. He asks what it tells us about ancient Gnosticism and about the modern enthusiasm for reconnecting with it. In considering the 'Gospel of Judas' as a spectacularly interesting archaeological find, Tom Wright contends that it tells us nothing about the real Jesus or the real Judas. Rather, the enthusiasm with which some have received it speaks of a fruitless 'Quest for an Alternative Jesus' and for sensational material like that explored in Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code.
