Elaine Pagels & Karen King

Condemned as heresy by church leaders in 160 AD, the Gospel of Judas Iscariot apparently lay hidden for 1,600 years before being found in a cavern by farmers in the 1970s. The gospel gives the perspective of Judas, history's ultimate traitor, who emerges, not as a villain, but as a hero, having been asked by Jesus to betray him to the authorities in order to complete the prophesies.
