Ostensibly written by Judas's son, Benjamin, and following the narrative style of the Gospels, this re-creation is provocative, compelling, and controversial. The Gospel According to Judas, by Benjamin Iscariotis the result of an intense collaboration between a storyteller and a scholar: Jeffrey Archerand Francis J.
