Was Judas a hero and most trusted disciple, or a traitor?
Was Judas a hero and most trusted disciple, or a traitor?
Most people see Judas as a traitor in the myth of the crucifixion. Few recognize that Jesus was asking his most trusted disciple, Judas, to turn him over to the Jews and Pilate.
Most are unaware of the meaning of the sop that Jesus gave to Judas at the last supper. Without knowing the definition and meaning of that word, it is not surprising that most think of Judas as they do. The completely wrong way.
A sop is basically a gift or conciliatory bribe, something that seals a deal. That is what Jesus gave Judas, his most trusted disciple. We know he was Jesus’ favorite because he was Jesus’ banker.
Dictionary reference for sop.
Something that is done or given to someone in order to prevent trouble, gain support, etc.
A conciliatory gift or bribe.
Without the betrayal, Jesus would not have died for us, as Yahweh had planned, and scriptures say that Judas also had no choice as that would have derailed god’s plan.
If any blame for Jesus’ death is to be given, it must be to Yahweh, whose plan, scriptures say must come to pass. Meaning that Yahweh would have to control all the players including Judas.
Scriptures show Jesus persuading Judas to do what he would not ordinarily have thought of doing.
Judas believed that Jesus was the messiah who was to rise again to lead the Jews. This lie imposed by Yahweh.
Was Judas a good man doing Jesus’ will or was he a traitor?

Both..and yet neither.
Both when His-Story repeats itself...which it does...like now.

I think Judas lost faith in Jesus as a man that would kick ass and remove the Romans, and eventually chose to sell him out when it looked like he would fail.Greatest I am wrote: ↑Sat May 16, 2020 2:56 pm Was Judas a hero and most trusted disciple, or a traitor?

You missed that Satan did not enter Judas till after Jesus gave him his mission.
If Judas was a traitor, then so were all the other apostles that sat there and said nothing as he left to do his deed for Jesus.

FTPOV, Jesus was too much of a coward to tell his Temple authorities to bite him when turning himself in.

Judas is mentioned in Luke - where he does not die - and Matt - where he killed himself (Matt and Luke were written at the same time - so its a wash per Juda's fate (but thinking it is more fair that he hanged himself, and less realistic - that he got his pay and lived a long live afterward (so Luke is prob the more accurate).
I ignore John in all things historical - when we have the Synoptics relating the same events, and which were earlier and so more accurate per events on the ground.

God as an omnipotent being could have stopped him.
God as an omniscient being knew what he was doing.
God the eternal made Judas to perform God's plan.
God used Judas to put the hit on his own son.
Judas was a patsy.
Judas was scapegoated.
God is a right bastard.

Earlier is not necessarily more accurate.
