The Gospel of Judas in pictures

Maps and diagrams that set this strange, damaged gospel in context — where it sits among the many tellings of Jesus, when it was written and lost and found again, the Gnostic world it came from, and the cosmos it reveals. Drawn from the text and the mainstream scholarship, with the uncertainties shown rather than smoothed over.
