Ben Witherington III is an evangelical, prolific, and first rate scholar. He
takes a forceful position against those who make excessive claims for this
Gospel of Judas and for other apocryphal gospels. He says the baloney meter is
high on this one. Questions, objections, and other claims follow his
presentation to which he responds. .

sensationalism and the omissions associated with this
