"The story of the gospel's rediscovery and salvation [The Lost Gospel by Herbert Krosney] reads like a Hollywood mystery." -The Boston Globe Jesus said to Judas: "You will exceed all of them. For you will sacrifice the man that clothes me." -The Gospel of Judas "Riveting....With the tenacity of a top-flight investigative reporter, Krosney pursued every facet of the discovery and reclamation of the text.
