Download or read book The Gospel of Judas Second Edition written by Rodolphe Kasser and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2008-06-17 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 1,600 years its message lay hidden. When the bound papyrus pages of this lost gospel finally reached scholars who could unlock its meaning, they were astounded. Here was a gospel that had not been seen since the early days of Christianity, and which few experts had even thought existed–a gospel told from the perspective of Judas Iscariot, history’s ultimate traitor. And far from being a villain, the Judas that emerges in its pages is a hero. In this radical reinterpretation, Jesus asks Judas to betray him. In contrast to the New Testament Gospels, Judas Iscariot is presented as a role model for all those who wish to be disciples of Jesus and is the one apostle who truly understands Jesus. Discovered by farmers in the 1970s in Middle Egypt, the codex containing the gospel was bought and sold by antiquities traders, secreted away, and carried across three continents, all the while suffering damage that reduced much of it to fragments. In 2001, it finally found its way into the hands of a team of experts who would painstakingly reassemble and restore it. The Gospel of Judas has been translated from its original Coptic to clear prose, and is accompanied by commentary that explains its fascinating history in the context of the early Church, offering a whole new way of understanding the message of Jesus Christ.

Download or read book The Legend of St Brendan written by Jude S. Mackley and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Legend of St Brendan" is a study of two accounts of a voyage undertaken by Brendan, a sixth-century Irish saint. The immense popularity of the Latin version encouraged many vernacular translations, including a twelfth-century Anglo-Norman reworking of the narrative which excises much of the devotional material seen in the ninth-century "Navigatio Sancti Brendani abbatis" and changes the emphasis, leaving a recognisably secular narrative. The vernacular version focuses on marvellous imagery and the trials and tribulations of a long sea-voyage. Together the two versions demonstrate a movement away from hagiography towards adventure. Studies of the two versions rarely discuss the elements of the fantastic. Following a summary of authorship, audiences and sources, this comparative study adopts a structural approach to the two versions of the Brendan narrative. It considers what the fantastic imagery achieves and addresses issues raised with respect to theological parallels.

Download or read book Before Adam Wore Clothes written by J. B. Butler and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BEFORE THE BEGINNING This fascinating book takes a trip back to eternity past, showing the Godhead (Father, Son & Holy Spirit) in conference, discussing their future plan to create a brand new creature, called man. It then focuses in on a once high-ranking angel named Lucifer, at the very point when he decides to overthrow Almighty God, and how later, his destiny and mankind's became intertwined. WHAT REALLY HAPPENED, IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN? Next, is on to the world-famous Garden of Eden, earth's very real, original paradise setting. The Lord (Jesus) personally forms the first man Adam, and some while later creates a woman (Eve), and they become man and wife. Their story is the heart of the book, with a verse-by-verse, in-depth examination, of what really went on in the garden, that's still impacting every single human being and living creature on planet earth, to this day. JESUS CAME TO EARTH, TO RESTORE WHAT ADAM LOST It's interesting to hear people's opinions on why they think Jesus came to earth. Many think He was one of a long-line of enlightened spiritual leaders, sent to show us how to live on a higher dimension or spiritual plane, of existence. Others think He was a very good man, who had wisdom to share with us, and a system of religious teachings from which the Christian religion came about. Then there are a large number of people who believe He was the Son of God, but they're not real sure what all was involved with His being here, especially the part about Him being killed. Jesus became a man to reverse Adam's curse, and to make it possible for everything to be restored, as it was in the beginning, so that mankind can rule and reign with Him, throughout eternity.
