Judas Iscariot

In our previous commentary, we discussed the apostles Simon Peter and the sons of Zebedee, and the epithets Petros and Boanerges which rested upon them respectively. Now we are left with nine more of the original twelve, of whom for the most part we know comparatively less, but that does not mean that there is not still much to discuss. Sometimes less is more, and a small set of interesting details concerning one apostle can reveal a volume of wisdom.
