- The Gospel of Judas caused a huge stir when National Geographic published it back in 2006. But to this day, misconceptions about this text abound. Who wrote this text? And what does it really say?

Have you ever heard of hesychasm or the noetic prayer ? Advanced practice leads to a state of illumination and glorification where one becomes constantly aware of Gods uncreated light. A state of ecstasy. Some people who have attained this practice, when they pass, their bodies don't decay normally, sometimes for decades. These holy relics even have a beautiful smell to them and one can feel them radiating. Please could you make us a video on your experiences with this practice. ua-cam.com/video/Pe4OtnPJGpo/v-deo.html

Judas killed himself after Jesus was crucified and besides that fact, none of the apostle wrote anything down when Jesus was alive.

I've recently found your channel and have subscribed after watching several of your presentations.

However, without enrolling in a good college-level theology or divinity class, I've found it difficult to find material that's not either skewed toward or against religion(s) to just study them. Keep up the great work. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you.

I suggest strongly that you buy the COMPANION BIBLE. Scripture, using hermeneutics (one of my hobbies for the past 20 years) by E.W. Bullinger and completed by Moffit, includes appendices that truly details the many misinterpretations that various religions have used to control congregations for selfish reasons rather than preaching the TRUTH. This is often the fault of preachers and seminary faculty who refuse to question what they have been taught. Reading the COMPANION Bible will help anyone with an open mind and true desire to learn will allow the reader or student to actually make sense of Scripture without bias to any particular denomination or sect.

In Greek the word "demon" or "δαίμονα" is used jokingly to describe someone who's giving you a hard time, or who's causing trouble. It can be used from a parent to their child jokingly and not in the context you explained in that video.
If Jesus would have called Judas a demon it could just be done jokingly
You didn't read the gospels and it shows.
Considering its been some 2 thousand years maybe the word changed its meaning
humor and semantics require cultural contexts... so unless u lived in those times or perhaps studied the culture extremely to understand the language and type of humor humans used in Jerusalem in those days... no one can truly say

Judas could have been the ultimate 'Snape' character.
@SigmaTauri2 Maybe, but not likely. No serious scholar doubts whether these people existed. Only the details about their lives. The "It was all made up" narrative is a strange one, specially because how much people like to insist upon it when they believe it.
@@Epiousios18 Oh, there are many that doubt but also many can put down and say that a man named Yeshua and lived 2000 years ago, preaching how judaism should be practised does not sound unreal. The three oldest none bible texts that mentions Yeshua (or rather at this time Jesus) are pretty weak on the truth of the matter but good enough to say that there where a Yeshua. As for Judas there is nothing on him. That Yeshua was betrayed doesn't sound out of this realm but that is was Judas has no proof outside of the hebrew text. There might have been a person that fits the description of Judas but not Judas himself. For all we know, Judas is as real as Zeus or Odin.
@@antonakesson I personally use the Gospel of Mark as a baseline because it is pretty obvious that it was written as a secondhand account. The Zeus and Odin comparison doesn't really follow though. Completely different ideas/eras at work there.

@@antonakesson Completely different context.You don't see billions of human being following the teaching of King Arthur do you? At a certain point it is just modernity bias that promotes the idea "its was all a myth/story"
The more I look into the Bible the more I realize that the messed up modern version of it is due mostly to poor translations 😭 you fr gotta find people who can talk about the original languages and the cultural context to understand what it's about, and most don't
You can use a Strong’s Bible Concordance to translate find the correct translations yourself. There’s even a Concordance Bible called the Interlinear Bible to help. It’s been extremely helpful to me in understanding the Word much better. So many people miss the importance of the fact that the people of the Bible are Hebrew and there are cultural and language barriers that muddy the context of Scripture, as you said. The Bible can’t be separated from the very people it’s about, but let most Christians tell it’s not an issue to do that.

theo springer the letter J was invented in the 16 hundreds how could there have been a guy by the name of Judas
David Hollenbeck Thats because Judas is the English version of the Hebrew name. The Hebrew name sounded a lot like the English name "Judas" so that's what the English translaters set it at. What you basically asked was "How come the Bible is in modern English when modern English has only been around for about 500 years?"

I’ve read the gospel of Judas multiple times. As a former Catholic I can safely say that the text certainly appears to show Judas as being someone extremely special to Jesus. He might not of been his “best“ friend, but he clearly is his number one pupil. The mission that he gives Judas is of the utmost importance in fulfilling his destiny which is something the others are portrayed as not understanding. The “13th demon” comment might be more of a reference to the apostles who it sounds like are trifling to Jesus at times. Jesus calling Judas the 13th may be a nod to him as being special as opposed to being a traitor.
He was most assuredly the body guard and close confidant of Jesus. His name Iscariot literally means of the knife..
Judas followed orders to turn Jesus over ..
The church has twisted the story to fit their narrative.. because the truth would destroy their grip on power .
@@alexwestman8289 the entire Gospel of Judas would undermine the RC narrative which is why they burned every copy they could get ahold of like many of the other non-canonical gospels from the Coptic and Dead Sea scrolls. They were heretical and hidden in Qumran for safety. This Gospel could be the only surviving script of it's kind. 5hw early. church, in it's mad rush to seize control and organize a new orthodoxy really missed an opportunity with this one to teach the truer lessons of their messiah.

We've known about Judas' role for decades. Truly, even according to the Bible he did what his leader told him to do. He was following orders.
Not entirely. Jesus never told Judas to betray him. what Bible are you reading? Judas in front of the chief priests said, "I have sinned by betraying an innocent man to death." It seemed like Judas was surprised Jesus was actually condemned to death. So perhaps Judas thought Jesus would get out of it and he would get the money. So Judas's sin was not just betraying Jesus Christ, we could say that he had a role to play and he did it, but his sin was greed.

Thank you for providing unbiased information on such a hot topic.
Actually plenty of atheists have covered this same topic at this same time 7 months ago
Judas did exactly what Jesus told him to do.
"Tell the Roman soldiers where I am so they can arrest me."
He planned on being crucified so he could rise from the dead.
What's wrong with that?
He could have gone to the soldiers himself

James Richard Wiley in that case why has Judas been vilified throughout history? Without him Jesus’ weird plan would not have worked. So Judas is the greatest apostle of them all. Just shows how illogical and idiotic Christianity is.
@@peterweeks2066 yep!🙂
This actually has some really neat parallels with Islamic notions of Satan (Iblis) and especially the interpretation of Ibn ʿArabī. The Islamic rebellion narrative casts Satan as the foremost lover of God. When God demands that he bow to humanity, he is stuck with the impossible choice of either disrespecting God by bowing to something lesser than God or disobeying God. Because he is the true lover of God, he chooses disobedience, because it is better to suffer separation from the beloved than to dishonour him. Even so, Satan leads us towards God from heaven. All love is a reflection of divine love, and so our petty, sinful loves are just an indirect love of God. Satan leads us towards those petty loves and so towards love of God. Ultimately, Satan will be rewarded for his enduring faith, love, and hard work and will be honoured when the judgement comes.
As for my interpretation of the Christian role of Judas, I see it a lot like how I see the temptation. Jesus is incorruptible. He can't be tempted. But he knows that temptation is an important part of our journey towards salvation, so he goes through temptations as a model for us even though he can't really be tempted. Likewise, he understands that we can only really be inspired to action when we lose something. He is eternal and all-loving and can't really lose anything, but he needs to show us what the path to righteousness looks like, so he (according to the canon) allows or (according to GoJ) requests that Judas betray him so that we can see how his great power and our salvation come out of loss, betrayal, and suffering. The reason why he couldn't have gone to the soldiers or even just crucified himself is that action comes from external loss and betrayal.
Always thought Judas' roll was a bit odly remembered. If the crucifixion of Jesus was the preordained will of god, then wouldn't Judas have been fulfilling gods will. Remembering him as a traitor seems like an odd take away to me.
Rift Vallance I like you bro I said that same thing people don't think like we do, judas played his role. Judas knew the truth And was used by God just like you said and he could be given another chance because he killed himself knowing that Jesus told him one of you will be betray me. He had no choice . Than Jesus would have been a liar.
bidun aism I guess we have the unpopular interpretation, on the same line I actually never thought judas killed himself, I know it says he goes and hangs after returning the silver, but at some point his belly was sliced open too, I always thought that implied he was murdered.
Satan has authority over the earth allowed by God. Whatever evil Satan does God turns it into a blessing. this can pretty much be seen throughout scripture most especially the book of Job.
It's "God", not "god" unless you are talking about a Pagan god. Also, it is "role" not "roll". So what other word besides traitor suits you for someone who betrays another with slanderous lies, for a few Shekels of silver?
Matthew Ronson Jr. The crucifixion was intended to redeem humanity, it was not a random event. That means it's not really an evil thing, it was a manifestation of God's will. Maybe Judas was the only apostle who was strong enough to do what God required of him. I thought it somewhat parallels the story of Abraham and Issiac.

Wait, this video is avoiding THE most important controversy around the Judas texts. Isn't there evidence Jesus condoned and forgave Judas' actions as necessary steps for the enlightenment of man? That is, Judas was NOT portrayed as the simplistic straw-man or evil punching bag modern Christianity set him up to be.
Hypatia4242, there is no evidence in the Bible that Jesus condoned and forgave Judas' actions. Prove me wrong
+Johan Bester --- you have misunderstood my comment. My point is that modern Christianity and the current editing of the bible DOES portray Judas as a simplistic straw-man character, set up to be a punching bag for Christians. What I'm pointing out, however, is gnostic texts portray a more complicated, important relationship. Specifically, the Gnostic Gospel of Judas imply Jesus and Judas planned the betrayal beforehand... together... as a means of enlightening mankind.
This debate did exist prior to the discovery of the Gnostic text. People have argued Judas was/is the first to be forgiven. Further, the kiss of Judas during the 'betrayal' was not meant as an evil gesture, but as an act of devotion. Judas identified Jesus so that Jesus could fulfill his role, in doing so he fulfilled his own role. Judas also offered to return the money, implying there was no personal gain. Apart from the 'death' scenes in some books, Judas is portrayed much more blandly and benignly than is often taught by modern Christians.
Also, it has been argued, somewhat convincingly I would say, Jesus' character is portrayed in such a way throughout that Judas was meant to be forgiven, or even pitied. That is, we are not meant to believe the son of God would hold a grudge or want us to do so... that LITERALLY defeats the purpose of the religion.

"Judas stahp my dad is constantly watching"
I have read it. Its essential message is that the kingdom of god is to be found within each person. The term judas is also jude or juda. It really means in greek, Diddamus, translated as twin. So most people assumed he was a twin of jesus of Nazareth, as he was able to describe his character as a child (brother).
That part of the kingdom within us makes a lot of sense somehow if we just erase all other readings about this kingdom of god
So what are we to do with the kingdom of God within us
Makes no sense if we have it within us why do we sin stop disrespecting god and his work you should read and learn before you disrespect a perfect being to appeal to your own sinful nature repent for all have fallen short from the glory of god
But you are correct we do have a yearning for god we belong to him until we submit we will never be satisfied.
@@bhumble8429 First define what is meant by 'The kingdom of God"? Remember there my be a very different meaning to it for the 2nd and 3rd Century Christians as to what Jesus actually meant?

Or it could mean a spiritual realm outside of physical creation? Or it could mean a certain level ''spiritual awareness' that you can achieve? Non of these things are incompatible with a 'sinful' falling short human being Light cannot exist without the dark Try describing light if you have never seen darkness? Perfection cannot exist without the imperfect; Try describing Perfect without ever knowing imperfection? Or simply, try to describe hot if you have never exerienced cold?

it can affect your belief system sister.

and There is a reason behind that why we don't have gnostic gospels.

same as for gnostic God doesn't allow it to be in the bible bcuz they are Opposite of what bible says..

Sounds like the story my brother makes up to make himself look better. Really, I don't know what to think.
I know, I believe in the holy trinity (god, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit)

@@Loverof_christ99 there’s a lot of added text out there. like the Quran for example. don’t worry. just follow Jesus towards the narrow gates.
All the gnostic gospels are like that: there are secret teachings that the "plebeians" aren't worthy of. And there's a secret disciple that's the only one who is taught. The problem is that the secret disciple is always a different person (Judas, Mary Magdalene, etc).

Judas was really Thomas. Thomas or Didemus the twin of Jesus in spirit. did not die but was given the task of of taking Jesus's teachings to india, which he did and established a theological base in Kerala which is still there today.

Jesus said " what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? "
So what.
James T Kirk said, *What's God need with a Starship.*
Both are worth the same!
*Nothing!*
Jesus tells us that " Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but my words will never pass away". 100% correct so far, and we don't have far to go. Shalom, Jesus any day !!!
And yet somehow, we don't actually know the words of this fellow, possibly and amalgam of fellows, Jesus. We know what people who never saw him wrote about him some 60 - 150 years later.
You are very much in error Timothy. Fact check your misinformation with credible sources such as Tyndale, Wycliffe, or Moody Or Ravi Zacharias Ministries . If the Gospel be hidden, it is hidden to those who are perishing. Humble yourself therefore under the Mighty Hand of God that he might lift you up in due time . God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. God Bless you , Shalom
J W Sanders Bwahaha! What a load of self serving bilge!
The Bible is true! How do we know? Because the Bible tells us so.
The Bible says" Satan entered into him" [ Judas].
Maybe he was tempted! And for Jesus to give his life was a test from Satan to Jesus, to see, if he can really sacrifice himself. So Satan entered into him or maybe it can be just in a sense that Judas was not a good man.
So, after Satan was out of him, or after he realized he actively contributed in killing the Honest, Just, Good and Righteous and God's Man, and God's son, (and maybe God, because we don't know what he experience and learned about Jesus being with Him) he was with he knew, Judas couldn't take this... So he committed suicide...
Well Jesus had to be betrayed in order to become the saviour. It was supposed to happen. If not Jesus would not have been crusified and there would be no way to salvation. So Judas actually did what God wanted him to do!

this Gospel was from Judas's P.R people ...they were trying to put a good spin on a bad situation
Alternatively, the only surviving piece of refutation to slander spread by his fellow apostles seeking a scapegoat for their failure in protecting their prophet.
@@kaptenlemper oooo
@@kaptenlemper "Protecting their Prophet"? Jesus never intended to live a long human life on earth. He completed the teaching parts, and the dying part was the pre-planned end to accomplish restitution to infinite God. Jesus stated this clearly way before.
The apostles were allowed to experience their panicked abandonment of Jesus to teach them they were still human. Some swell hardheadedness had been growing because they were THE disciples of popular Jesus. While they would become future leaders, they needed the humbling experience of their human weakness to prevent pride of office from distorting their future delivery of Jesus' teaching.
If Judas is being referred to as Saklas (or at least his earthly body double), then it would make sense that he knows where Jesus truly comes from, since he comes from the same place. It also makes sense that Judas would betray Jesus.
Tatooine. Sand, I hate sand....
I like your tatooine poster but I can t identify the other poster, is that a flying blue whale? or a plane? save the whales! save all animals ! bigot evangelists who see sin everywhere don t have star wars posters, you must be more open minded
Keep in mind that those in power rewrite history. It's very contradicting for Judas to claim unworthiness if he was a demon according to things. My take would be that, in this depiction, he represented the neutral idea of Gnosticism itself.
I don’t think I will want to take some advices from a “sexy man 3000” 😂

Thank you for this video. It was suggested to me today in 2021. Between when you posted and my viewing, I had seen a documentary that did indeed say Judas & Jesus as best friends and actually planned the martyrdom. And that was the trigger for Judas to commit suicide. Now I'm back where I started--a bit confused. :)
CJ It's strange how in the Gospels there are two different accounts of how Judas died. In one he hangs himself, and the other sounds like he fell on his sword.
What I like most is how this changes the narrative from Judas being the betrayer to Peter being the betrayer, which of course has sweeping implications.
How does it make Peter the betrayer? I’m not doubting you, I’m just curious cuz I don’t see where that implication is and it sounds interesting.
Daemon, daemos, daimos, etc. are more accurately translated as messenger. Kind of like a postman.
Just as the name Satan is more accurately translated as "debate opponent", as it's an Anglicization of _sheitan,_ the title for that position.
@@Serai3 Well, before his fall from heaven, Satan was originally a lawyer so, makes sense

We live in a world of Preachers, Politicians and Prosecutors. If we are scientific enough, we can see the true picture of what God is. God is something we all know inside only, it cannot be named and described.
Gnostic means " One who knows " so, knowledge was a problem for some. Not much has changed.
The original term is _pseudonymos gnosis_
Judas' actions don't reflect the wisdom he claims to posses!!!
You should read the text translation from the hebrew. Look for a copy of the book of Thomas. Thomas and Judas are interchangeable as is Didemus.
@@itzybitzyspyder nah Paul was smart as heck
This is a lie because Judas says ““I have sinned,” he said, “for I have betrayed innocent blood.” “What is that to us?” they replied. “That’s your responsibility.””
If he said this then that means he knows Jesus is innocent.
Judas wanted to use the knowledge that Jesus gave him to manipulate people but Jesus disagreed. Jesus only wanted to spread love, so of course he was innocent.
there are a lot of contradictions, mistranslations, and rewordings in the bible. That doesn't exactly disprove it
@@latenightthinker4737 name one

Judas said he sinned against innocent blood before killing himself. Matthew 27-28
And he sits in the temple and the churches of God pretending that he is God when he is not,
He was a liar a thief and a murderer from the beginning of the gardens of Eden, to the gardens of the olive trees ,
Until now accusing our brothers and sisters of sin and other false accusations
@Anil Kumar well well well, I know who you are, and it doesn't matter about your ego and outstanding so called achievements, and you of all people I would have at first thought to be truly enlightened but your not
And to your own true form you shall be exposed, I know that the Lord Jesus Christ is real and so are all of the prophets the ascended masters
Which there are many, it is the false ideologies about the Lord Jesus Christ and those who misuse his name along with the name of God
Buddha, Lord shiva and the other Holy Ones who are the hypocrites,
For many worship mystery babylon religions, which really stands for every abomination created by men,
To stand each practices idolatry and they love money and themselves more than God and the Holy Ones they pretend to follow, and they give the greatest speeches, just like rehearsed politicians and t.v game show hosts, and you too will indeed come to regret your own words,

@꧁C͜͡h͜͡i͜͡l͜͡d͜͡ o͜͡f͜͡ G͜͡o͜͡d͜͡꧂ true but your not stupid either God exists everywhere and within all that are of his Creations, it's the impure counterfeit creations of man,
People think that lucifer is just a fallen angel, but in truth in the gardens of Eden he appeared as a man who do you think brought death into the world by killing the first Mother and Father of Creations
Because they are God, and he wanted to rule over them and the world and to try to ascend to the Heavens and this is the reason why impure entities and souls cannot enter Heaven, but in truth the ten commandments have been overtaken and they have been extended to be misused to enslave the people and it has nothing to with God at all

To be clear, the fist line of Genesis is not "In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth." That is an English mistranslation. The original text translated to English is "In the beginning Elohim created the heavens and the Earth." Elohim is plural.
Judaism is not a monotheistic religion. It is a henotheistic religion, worshiping a particular god over other gods. "Thou shalt have no other gods (plural again) before me." Notice the implication is not that there aren't other gods, that is implicitly affirmed, but that one shall not have any of those gods worshiped ahead of of this particular one.
(1) The mistranslation is "In the beginning" - the Hebrew word בראשית means "In the beginning *of*," i.e. it's probably more accurate to translate it as "In the beginning of God's creating the heavens and the earth. . . " (even the earliest commentators discuss the difficulty of the Hebrew grammar, because it's not clear what the object of the preposition is).
(2) The first verse of Genesis uses a singular verb, which is a difficulty for your translation, especially when you consider that when "Elohim" is intended as a plural, a plural verb is used.
Wild stuff. Reinforces my long-held opinion that modern Christians have been played. Played hard. This Gospel of Judas thing is next level. Makes the whole theology bit interesting again.
Modern Christians weren't played
They just are the Christian faction that end up dominant from the numerous Christian factions of early Christianity
@@γιουργια Bro no. They're the sect that a roman pagan empror decided will be dominant and persecuted everyone who went against them.

Consideration Judas betrayed Jesus and soon after killed himself, I put no real merit into anything that he may or may not have said.
@@milleniumfrisbeeexactly! What makes them so sure Judas is correct? He was a traitor
Obviously Judas WAS NOT considered evil by Jesus referring to him as a "demon". The term had no negative connotation until well after Christianity had become the religion of the Roman Empire. After that the old gods were demoted to the realm of benevolent spirits; later to be replaced by the calendar of saints, again, benevolent spirits, not evil beings.

Correction: Judas Iscariot did NOT betray Jesus. He did as he was supposed to, so that god's plan might be fulfilled. It was Simon called Peter ("the stone") who denied Jesus and betrayed his trust. This is according to the standard bible. If you cannot remember this. read again: Peter denied Jesus three times when he was asked by a person on the street.
Meaning that the entire church tradition descended from the Roman church was corrupted from the start.
My best book on the topic is “Reading Judas” by Elaine Pagels and Karen King.
