El Evangelio PROHIBIDO de Judas: ¿Traidor o Único Que ENTENDIÓ a Jesús? | Los Elegidos - The Chosen

The FORBIDDEN Gospel of Judas: Traitor or the Only One Who UNDERSTOOD Jesus? | The Chosen 1978. Egyptian Desert. 1,700-Year-Old FORBIDDEN Manuscript Discovered. It Says Judas Did NOT betray. He OBEYED. 📜 GOSPEL OF JUDAS (Codex Tchacos): Discovered: 1978, El Minya, Egypt Restored: National Geographic 2006 Dating: 3rd-4th Century AD (Coptic) Condemned: Irenaeus of Lyons 180 AD (Gnostic heresy) ⚠️ CRUCIAL TO UNDERSTAND: ❌ NOT a canonical text ❌ NOT written by the historical Judas ❌ The Orthodox Church CORRECTLY rejected it ✅ 2nd-century Gnostic text ✅ Uses the character of Judas to teach Gnostic doctrines ✅ Studying it = understanding early theological struggles 🎭 THE CHOSEN (Luke Damian): IMPORTANT: Dallas Jenkins and The Chosen do NOT address the Gospel of Judas. The Chosen is based on CANONICAL gospels. We explore the Gnostic manuscript separately. Luke Damian's interpretation of Judas: Idealistic revolutionary → growing disillusionment Perfume from Bethany (300 denarii) = breaking point Jesus accepts luxury vs. funding revolution 🔍 PROFILE OF THE HISTORICAL JUDAS: "Iscariot" = Ish Keriot (man Keriot, Judea) The only non-Galilean (geographical outsider) Possible connection to the "sicarii" (dagger men = Zealots) He expected a POLITICAL-MILITARY Messiah (not spiritual) John 12:6: "He was a thief; having the moneybag, he used to steal." Group treasurer + stole money 💔 PERFUME INCIDENT (John 12:1-6): Mary of Bethany pours out pure nard perfume Value: 300 denarii (a full year's salary) Judas: "Why not sell it and give it to the poor?" Real Motivation: Greed (John 12:6) Political disillusionment (300 denarii = finance revolution) Jesus accepts luxury vs. fighting Rome The Chosen captures: something BREAKS in Judas #fraysantos #thechosen #thechosenofgod #thechosen
