Abstract

Lance Jenott presents a new critical edition, annotated translation, and interpretation of the Gospel of Judas which, for the first time, includes all extant fragments of the manuscript. Departing from the scholarly debate over how this second-century Gospel portrays the character of Judas Iscariot, he investigates the text’s preoccupation with Jesus’ Twelve Disciples, and why its author slanders them as immoral priests who unwittingly offer sacrifice to a false god. Jenott challenges previous interpretations of Judas as a Gnostic text that criticizes the sacrificial theology, Christology, and ritual practices of the orthodox church, including Eucharist and baptism. Instead, he emphasizes how its Christian author voices a political critique of the emerging clergy who established their ecclesiological authority through doctrines of apostolic succession and the exclusive right to administer the Eucharist. In the final chapter, Jenott leaves questions about the author’s second-century Sitz im Leben behind to consider how Judas may have appealed to the fourth-century Coptic Christians who produced our only known copy.

Abstract

Ils ont jalonné l'histoire de l'humanité, des temps les plus reculés à aujourd'hui. Ce sont treize livres maudits, honnis, rejetés, brûlés, lacérés, censurés et cependant, ils ont survécu. Pour le meilleur comme pour le pire, ils ont marqué les mentalités, souterrainement mais en profondeur... Voici leur histoire, souvent méconnue. Certains d'entre eux sont célèbres et d'autres, cachés ou même disparus. Tous ont une histoire passionnante, parfois terrifiante, que cet ouvrage dévoile au terme d'une enquête approfondie. Postface de Xavier-Laurent Salvador, professeur agrégé, docteur ès lettres, maître de conférences au sein de Sorbonne Paris Cité (Université Paris XIII).

Abstract

The papers gathered in this book were presented at the First International Conference (held in Paris, University of Sorbonne, October 27th-28th 2006), devoted to the newly discovered Gospel of Judas, preserved in the 4th century Coptic Codex Tchacos. These essays explore several crucial literary, historical and doctrinal issues related to this gospel, composed in the second half of the 2nd century. This unexpected discovery sheds a new light on the role attributed to Judas by some Gnostic Christian movements. A hotly debated question is precisely the significance of Judas in this gospel: hero or villain? Special attention is given to the sources - Greek, Jewish, Christian and even Iranian - used by the unknown author. This book will be of special interest for historians of late Antiquity religions and scholars in New Testament studies, Gnosticism and Coptic literature.
