 THE GOSPEL OF JUDAS
 INTRODUCTION: INCIPIT The secret account of the revelation that Jesus spoke in conversation with Judas Iscariotduring a week three days before he celebrated Passover.
 THE EARTHLY MINISTRY OF JESUS
 When Jesus appeared on earth, he performed miracles and great wonders for the salvationof humanity. And since some [walked] in the way of righteousness while others walked
 in their transgressions, the twelve disciples were called.
 He began to speak with them about the mysteries beyond the world and what wouldtake place at the end.
  Often he did not appear to his disciples as himself, but he was foundamong them as a child.
 SCENE 1: Jesus dialogues with his disciples: The prayer of thanksgiving or the eucharist
 One day he was with his disciples in Judea, and he found them gathered together and
 seated in pious observance.
 When he [approached] his disciples, [34] gathered togetherand seated and offering a prayer of thanksgiving over the bread, [he] laughed.
 The disciples said to [him], “Master, why are you laughing at [our] prayer ofthanksgiving? We have done what is right.”
 He answered and said to them, “I am not laughing at you.   are not doing thisbecause of your own will but because it is through this that your god [will be] praised.”
 They said, “Master, you are […] the son of our god.” Jesus said to them, “How do you know me? Truly [I] say to you, no generation of thepeople that are among you will know me.”
 THE DISCIPLES BECOME ANGRY When his disciples heard this, they started getting angry and infuriated and beganblaspheming against him in their hearts.
 When Jesus observed their lack of [understanding, he said] to them, “Why has thisagitation led you to anger?
 Your god who is within you and […] [35] have provoked youto anger [within] your souls.
  [Let] any one of you who is [strong enough] among humanbeings bring out the perfect human and stand before my face.”
 They all said, “We have the strength.” But their spirits did not dare to stand before [him], except for Judas Iscariot. He was able to stand before him, but he could not look him in the eyes, and he turned his faceaway.
 Judas [said] to him, “I know who you are and where you have come from.  You are from the immortal realm of Barbelo.  And I am not worthy to utter the name of the onewho has sent you.”
 JESUS SPEAKS TO JUDAS PRIVATELY
 Knowing that Judas was reflecting upon something that was exalted, Jesus said to him,
 “Step away from the others and I shall tell you the mysteries of the kingdom.
  It is possible for you to reach it, but you will grieve a great deal.  [36] For someone else will replace you, in order that the twelve [disciples] may again come to completion with theirgod.”
 Judas said to him, “When will you tell me these things, and [when] will the great dayof light dawn for the generation?”
 But when he said this, Jesus left him. SCENE 2: Jesus appears to the disciples again The next morning, after this happened, Jesus [appeared] to his disciples again.
 They said to him, “Master, where did you go and what did you do when you left us?” Jesus said to them, “I went to another great and holy generation.” His disciples said to him, “Lord, what is the great generation that is superior to us andholier than us, that is not now in these realms?”
 When Jesus heard this, he laughed and said to them, “Why are you thinking in yourhearts about the strong and holy generation?
 [37] Truly [I] say to you, no one born [of]this aeon will see that [generation], and no host of angels of the stars will rule over that
 generation, and no person of mortal birth can associate with it, because that generation
 does not come from […] which has become […].
 The generation of people among [you]is from the generation of humanity […] power, which [… the] other powers […] by
 [which] you rule.”
 When [his] disciples heard this, they each were troubled in spirit.
 They could not say a word. Another day Jesus came up to [them].
 They said to [him], “Master, we have seen youin a [vision], for we have had great [dreams …] night […].”
 [He said], “Why have [you … when]  have gone into hiding?” [38] THE DISCIPLES SEE THE TEMPLE AND DISCUSS IT They [said, “We have seen] a great [house with a large] altar [in it, and] twelve
 men—they are the priests, we would say—and a name; and a crowd of people is waiting
 at that altar, [until] the priests [… and receive] the offerings.
 [But] we kept waiting.” [Jesus said], “What are [the priests] like?” They [said, “Some …] two weeks; [some] sacrifice their own children, others theirwives, in praise [and] humility with each other; some sleep with men; some are involved
 in [slaughter]; some commit a multitude of sins and deeds of lawlessness.
 And the men who stand [before] the altar invoke your [name], [39] and in all the deeds of theirdeficiency, the sacrifices are brought to completion […].”
 After they said this, they were quiet, for they were troubled.
 JESUS OFFERS AN ALLEGORICAL INTERPRETATION OF THE VISION OF THE TEMPLE Jesus said to them, “Why are you troubled? Truly I say to you, all the priests who stand
 before that altar invoke my name.
 Again I say to you, my name has been written on this[…] of the generations of the stars through the human generations.
  [And they] have planted trees without fruit, in my name, in a shameful manner.” Jesus said to them, “Those you have seen receiving the offerings at the altar—that iswho you are.
 That is the god you serve, and you are those twelve men you have seen.  The cattle you have seen brought for sacrifice are the many people you lead astray [40] beforethat altar.
 […] will stand and make use of my name in this way, and generations of thepious will remain loyal to him.
 After hi another man will stand there from [thefornicators], and another [will] stand there from the slayers of children, and another from
 those who sleep with men, and those who abstain, and the rest of the people of pollution
 and lawlessness and error, and those who say, ‘We are like angels’; they are the stars that
 bring everything to its conclusion.
 For to the human generations it has been said, ‘Look,God has received your sacrifice from the hands of a priest’—that is, a minister of error.
 But it is the Lord, the Lord of the universe, who commands, ‘On the last day they will beput to shame.’” [41]
 Jesus said [to them], “Stop sac[rificing …] which you have […] over the altar, since
 they are over your stars and your angels and have already come to their conclusion there.
 So let them be [ensnared] before you, and let them go [—about 15 lines missing—]generations […].
  A baker cannot feed all creation [42] under [heaven].  And […] to them […] and […] to us and […]. Jesus said to them, “Stop struggling with me. Each of you has his own star, andevery[body—about 17 lines missing—] [43] in […] who has come [… spring] for the tree
 […] of this aeon […] for a time […] but he has come to water God’s paradise, and the
 [generation] that will last, because [he] will not defile the [walk of life of] that
 generation, but […] for all eternity.”
 JUDAS ASKS JESUS ABOUT THAT GENERATION AND HUMAN GENERATIONS
 Judas said to [him, “Rabb]i, what kind of fruit does this generation produce?”
 Jesus said, “The souls of every human generation will die.  When these people, however, have completed the time of the kingdom and the spirit leaves them, their bodieswill die but their souls will be alive, and they will be taken up.”
 Judas said, “And what will the rest of the human generations do?” Jesus said, “It is impossible [44] to sow seed on [rock] and harvest its fruit. [This] isalso the way […] the [defiled] generation […] and corruptible Sophia […] the hand that
 has created mortal people, so that their souls go up to the eternal realms above.
 [Truly] I say to you, […] angel […] power will be able to see that […] these to whom […] holygenerations […].”
 After Jesus said this, he departed. SCENE 3: Judas recounts a vision and Jesus responds
 Judas said, “Master, as you have listened to all of them, now also listen to me. For I have
 seen a great vision.”
 When Jesus heard this, he laughed and said to him, “You thirteenth spirit, why do youtry so hard? But speak up, and I shall bear with you.”
 Judas said to him, “In the vision I saw myself as the twelve disciples were stoning meand [45] persecuting [me severely].
 And I also came to the place where […] after you.  I saw [a house …], and my eyes could not [comprehend] its size.  Great people were surrounding it, and that house  a roof of greenery, and in the middle of the housewas [a crowd—two lines missing—], saying, ‘Master, take me in along with these
 people.’”
 [Jesus] answered and said, “Judas, your star has led you astray.”  He continued, “No person of mortal birth is worthy to enter the house you have seen, for that place isreserved for the holy.
 Neither the sun nor the moon will rule there, nor the day, but theholy will abide there always, in the eternal realm with the holy angels. Look, I have
 explained to you the mysteries of the kingdom [46] and I have taught you about the error
 of the stars; and […] send it […] on the twelve aeons.”
 JUDAS ASKS ABOUT HIS OWN FATE
 Judas said, “Master, could it be that my seed is under the control of the rulers?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Come, that I [—two lines missing—], but that youwill grieve much when you see the kingdom and all its generation.”
 When he heard this, Judas said to him, “What good is it that I have received it? Foryou have set me apart for that generation.”
 Jesus answered and said, “You will become the thirteenth, and you will be cursed bythe other generations—and you will come to rule over them.
 In the last days they will curse your ascent [47] to the holy [generation].” JESUS TEACHES JUDAS ABOUT COSMOLOGY: THE SPIRIT AND THE SELF-GENERATED Jesus said, “[Come], that I may teach you about [secrets] no person [has] ever seen.  For there exists a great and boundless realm, whose extent no generation of angels has seen,[in which] there is [a] great invisible [Spirit],
 which no eye of an angel has ever seen,
 no thought of the heart has ever comprehended,
 and it was never called by any name.
 “And a luminous cloud appeared there. He said, ‘Let an angel come into being as my
 attendant.’
 “A great angel, the enlightened divine Self-Generated, emerged from the cloud.Because of him, four other angels came into being from another cloud, and they became
 attendants for the angelic Self-Generated.
 The Self-Generated said, [48] ‘Let […] comeinto being […],’ and it came into being […]. And he [created] the first luminary to reign
 over him. He said, ‘Let angels come into being to serve [him],’ and myriads without
 number came into being.
 He said, ‘[Let] an enlightened aeon come into being,’ and hecame into being. He created the second luminary [to] reign over him, together with
 myriads of angels without number, to offer service.
  That is how he created the rest of theenlightened aeons. He made them reign over them, and he created for them myriads of
 angels without number, to assist them.
 ADAMAS AND THE LUMINARIES
 “Adamas was in the first luminous cloud that no angel has ever seen among all thosecalled ‘God.’
  He [49] […] that […] the image […] and after the likeness of [this] angel. He made the incorruptible [generation] of Seth appear […] the twelve […] the twentyfour[…].
 He made seventy-two luminaries appear in the incorruptible generation, inaccordance with the will of the Spirit.
 The seventy-two luminaries themselves made threehundred sixty luminaries appear in the incorruptible generation, in accordance with the
 will of the Spirit, that their number should be five for each.
 “The twelve aeons of the twelve luminaries constitute their father, with six heavens for
 each aeon, so that there are seventy-two heavens for the seventy-two luminaries, and for
 each [50] [of them five] firmaments, [for a total of] three hundred sixty [firmaments …].
 They were given authority and a [great] host of angels [without number], for glory andadoration, [and after that also] virgin spirits, for glory and [adoration] of all the aeons and
 the heavens and their firmaments.
 THE COSMOS, CHAOS, AND THE UNDERWORLD
 “The multitude of those immortals is called the cosmos— that is, perdition—by theFather and the seventy-two luminaries who are with the Self-Generated and his seventytwo
 aeons.
  In him the first human appeared with his incorruptible powers.  And the aeon that appeared with his generation, the aeon in whom are the cloud of knowledge and theangel, is called [51] El. […] aeon […] after that […] said, ‘Let twelve angels come into
 being [to] rule over chaos and the [underworld].’
  And look, from the cloud there appeared an [angel] whose face flashed with fire and whose appearance was defiled withblood.
 His name was Nebro, which means ‘rebel’; others call him Yaldabaoth.  Another angel, Saklas, also came from the cloud. So Nebro created six angels—as well asSaklas—to be assistants, and these produced twelve angels in the heavens, with each one
 receiving a portion in the heavens.
 THE RULERS AND ANGELS “The twelve rulers spoke with the twelve angels: ‘Let each of you [52] […] and let them[…] generation [—one line lost—] angels’:
 The first is [S]eth, who is called Christ. The [second] is Harmathoth, who is […]. The [third] is Galila. The fourth is Yobel. The fifth [is] Adonaios. These are the five who ruled over the underworld, and first of all over chaos. THE CREATION OF HUMANITY
 “Then Saklas said to his angels, ‘Let us create a human being after the likeness and afterthe image.’ They fashioned Adam and his wife Eve, who is called, in the cloud, Zoe.
 For by this name all the generations seek the man, and each of them calls the woman by thesenames.
 Now, Sakla did not [53] com[mand …] except […] the gene[rations …] this […].And the [ruler] said to Adam, ‘You shall live long, with your children.’”
 JUDAS ASKS ABOUT THE DESTINY OF ADAM AND HUMANITY Judas said to Jesus, “[What] is the long duration of time that the human being will live?” Jesus said, “Why are you wondering about this, that Adam, with his generation, haslived his span of life in the place where he has received his kingdom, with longevity with
 his ruler?”
 Judas said to Jesus, “Does the human spirit die?” Jesus said, “This is why God ordered Michael to give the spirits of people to them as aloan, so that they might offer service, but the Great One ordered Gabriel to grant spirits to
 the great generation with no ruler over it—that is, the spirit and the soul.
 Therefore, the [rest] of the souls [54] [—one line missing—]. JESUS DISCUSSES THE DESTRUCTION OF THE WICKED WITH JUDAS AND OTHERS “[…] light [—nearly two lines missing—] around […] let […] spirit [that is] within you
 dwell in this [flesh] among the generations of angels.
  But God caused knowledge to be [given] to Adam and those with him, so that the kings of chaos and the underworld mightnot lord it over them.”
 Judas said to Jesus, “So what will those generations do?” Jesus said, “Truly I say to you, for all of them the stars bring matters to completion. When Saklas completes the span of time assigned for him, their first star will appear withthe generations, and they will finish what they said they would do.
 Then they will fornicate in my name and slay their children [55] and they will […] and [—about six anda half lines missing—] my name, and he will […] your star over the [thir]teenth aeon.”
 After that Jesus [laughed].
 [Judas said], “Master, [why are you laughing at us]?” [Jesus] answered [and said], “I am not laughing [at you] but at the error of the stars,because these six stars wander about with these five combatants, and they all will be
 destroyed along with their creatures.”
 JESUS SPEAKS OF THOSE WHO ARE BAPTIZED, AND JUDAS’S BETRAYAL Judas said to Jesus, “Look, what will those who have been baptized in your name do?”
 Jesus said, “Truly I say [to you], this baptism [56] […] my name [—about nine linesmissing—] to me.
 Truly [I] say to you, Judas, [those who] offer sacrifices to Saklas […]God [—three lines missing—] everything that is evil.
 “But you will exceed all of them. For you will sacrifice the man that clothes me.
 Already your horn has been raised, your wrath has been kindled,your star has shown brightly,
 and your heart has […]. [57]
 “Truly […] your last […] become [—about two and a half lines missing—], grieve[—about two lines missing—] the ruler, since he will be destroyed.
 And then the image of the great generation of Adam will be exalted, for prior to heaven, earth, and the angels,that generation, which is from the eternal realms, exists.
  Look, you have been told everything.  Lift up your eyes and look at the cloud and the light within it and the stars surrounding it.  The star that leads the way is your star.” Judas lifted up his eyes and saw the luminous cloud, and he entered it.  Those standing on the ground heard a voice coming from the cloud, saying, [58] […] great generation[…] … image […] [—about five lines missing—].
 CONCLUSION: JUDAS BETRAYS JESUS […] Their high priests murmured because [he] had gone into the guest room for his
 prayer.
 But some scribes were there watching carefully in order to arrest him during theprayer, for they were afraid of the people, since he was regarded by all as a prophet.
 They approached Judas and said to him, “What are you doing here? You are Jesus’
 disciple.”
 Judas answered them as they wished.  And he received some money and handed him over to them. http://www.nationalgeographic.com/lostgospel/_pdf/GospelofJudas.pdf
