Book excerpt: Bill Brisons book on Judas brings to bear on this deepest enigma of the New Testament story both a sharp academic skill and a bold imagination. He makes us read the texts in a fresh and very challenging way not simply induging in easy iconoclasm but obliging us to ask questions we never thought of so as to come closer to the historic heart of the faith. It deserves to be widely read and pondered, and I hope it will have the attentive readership it merits. Rowan Williams while Archbishop of Canterbury While not necessarily agreeing with the conclusions of your study, they deserve publication and should stimulate the thinking of any who are interested in the authorship the Gospel of St. John. Stuart Blanch while Archbishop of York I am deeply touched by your beautiful thought about Our Lords forgiveness of Judas and about the communitys forgiveness of him Rev. Canon Charles Moule, Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity at Cambridge University You will run into great opposition from the left, especially the liberal flank of New Testament scholars. The conservatives will welcome your careful handling of the text The Rev. Dr. Brevard Childs, Professor of Old Testament at Yale University I am surprised at the venom with which publishers responded to the manuscript. Judas seems to strike a raw nerve in the corporate consciousness Dr. Matthew Melko, Professor of Peace Studies Brilliant Editor, Religious Studies
