I read a book recently, or more accurately, skimmed a book recently, called Judas. In it, the author goes into scholarship that seems to point to the conclusion that Judas Iscariot did not “betray” our Lord, but rather “handed Him over”. It is not a small thing, that difference. It is the difference between guilty and innocent, damned or saved. It is reflective of the view that I was told of in my visions; it seems to have legs, after all. I wonder how the whole myth of the betrayer came to be, if there is, even now, so much evidence that Judas is in fact clean of all blame. And I wonder what it will take to clear his name, dragged through the mud lo these many centuries.
