Book Synopsis Judas Iscariot and the Myth of Jewish Evil by : Hyam Maccoby
Book excerpt: Maccoby returns to the sources of Christianity to show how Judas was invented by successive gospel writers, thereby ingraining in the minds of Christian Europeans a perverted image of the Jew as a malevolent betrayer. He goes on to show how this idea helped to justify 2,000 years of genocidal persecution.
