Description
Judas: A BiographyWho was Judas Iscariot and why did he betray Jesus? Despite the recent recovery of a Gnostic Gospel bearing his name, the centrality of Judas has gone largely ignored. Yet, because of gaps and incongruities in biblical accounts about him, artists throughout the ages have returned to the twelfth apostle, who inaugurates Jesus' death and resurrection. In this comprehensive, probing book, Susan Gubar explains how Judas came to stand for the Jewish people
Who was Judas Iscariot and why did he betray Jesus? Despite the recent recovery of a Gnostic Gospel bearing his name, the centrality of Judas has gone largely ignored. Yet, because of gaps and incongruities in biblical accounts about him, artists throughout the ages have returned to the twelfth apostle, who inaugurates Jesus' death and resurrection. In this comprehensive, probing book, Susan Gubar explains how Judas came to stand for the Jewish people and how he personifies a composite Judeo-Christianity that illuminates ambivalent relationships between Christians and Jews as well as changing attitudes toward the body, blood, and money; greed and hypocrisy; suicide and repentance; homosexuality and divinity. Over twenty centuries, a figure of disgrace turns into a dignitary. Gubar shows how Jesus' most notorious disciple--known for a kiss--has provoked profound reflections on the problem of evil that still resonate today.Binding Type: Paperback

Even a kitten has growing problems
Format: Hardcover
I loved this story 70 years ago and wanted to pass it on to my grandchildren who just got a new kitten. They are old enough to read it on their own, and they can see how even kittens can have problems, but all is well in the end .

Natural, Gentle, and Smells Great
Style: Most Popular
I picked these up to try something more natural, and I love them. They lather well, feel gentle on the skin, and leave it feeling clean without drying it out. The scents are really nice too. They feel like good quality bars.

Longevity, scent, quality 10/10
Style: Most Popular
I’ve gone through just about the whole box and I will be buying more.
I bought these early November 2025 and now that it’s almost May of 2026 I’m down to my last two bars so id say they last awhile. I use them for body wash and will be using them for hand soap once I go through my stash of bar soaps from other brands.
It lathers nicely, with a light scent, natural not over bearing chemical scents.
I use this as body wash and hand soap.
I haven’t noticed any skin irritation, just a good ole natural soap (:
I love how there’s no plastic in sight other than maybe amazon packaging
