The Autobiography Of Judas Iscariot

What motivates a man to betray a friend? And not just a friend but the Son of God? The Bible doesn't answer this question. In fact, it says very little about Judas Isacariot, leaving who he was and what motivated him to our own interpretation. "The Autobiography of Judas Iscariot" imagines how Judas himself would have told his story from his childhood under Roman occupation to his suicide on a tree outside Jerusalem as Jesus, the one he betrayed, died on another tree for the sins of all mankind.

As a novel, the "autobiography" is fictional. However, it faithfully follows the Biblical narrative. In the end, Judas reveals not only his own heart but also the heart of the One he rejected, Jesus. If we are to be honest, his ambitions and justifications also reveal our own hearts. We find we often have some Judas in ourselves.
