Synopsis
Who is Judas: the traitor by excellence or the one who obeys an order from his master "you will betray me"? The Gospel according to John mentions the "Jews" more than seventy times... But who are the Jews in this text?
How to explain that, among the disciples of Jesus, Judas is the one who betrays him and delivers him to death? Does this betrayal have a historical basis? Who is Judas? Is he called the Iscariot because he comes from a village in Judea near Jerusalem? Is he the only Judean? Could it be all of Judea that betrays Jesus under this name? But wouldn't he also be the Jew? The one who takes on the wrong role and embodies Jewishness after the Christians broke with the synagogue?
The Serie : A historical and scientific enquiry into the origins of the New Testament and the life of Jesus Christ involving specialists from all over the world.
