Abstract | The present argument proposes a new interpretation for GJudas 57,24, a famously difficult passage in which someone enters a luminous cloud. While scholarship is divided over whether the phrase ⲁϥϥⲱⲕ ⲉϩ︤ⲟⲩⲛ applies to Judas or Jesus, there is a previously overlooked third option that is syntactically close to hand: it is Judas’s star. This translation, further, fits with important themes in the Gospel of Judas, both theological and narratological. |
