9780771597725: Time for Judas

Synopsis

This audacious and intriguing new version of the story of Christ's trial, crucifixion, and resurrection is based on the writings of Philo of Crete, a secretary to Pontius Pilate. Throughout his time as Pilate's scribe, he attended Christ's trial, mingled with city prostitutes and desert bandits, and became acquainted with Judas Iscariot. It was through Judas that he learned the real story of the betrayal and what actually happened to Christ's body. His convincing account is a radical and dramatic version of the commonly accepted story.
