… Dante threw him into the last circle of hell, and the church has been cursing for two thousand years. Judas from Cariot, the son of Simon, is a biblical symbol of betrayal, a great sinner who gave Jesus Christ into the hands of the executioners and condemned death to the godmother. What pushed him on such an act? Hatred? But he loves Christ and reads as a teacher, and for Christ he is a beloved disciple. Greed? But Judas did not even take advantage of the money received for betrayal, throwing their high priests and Pharisees. Hardlessness? But this is another question, who is more cordial: other apostles continue to eat and sleep after the death of the teacher, and Judas cannot live and kills himself. And was there any betrayal? Maybe the miscalculation of Judas was needed so that Christ would accept the procession and become the Savior of the world? The outstanding Russian writer of the Silver Age Leonid Andreev (1871-1919) painfully reflects on love and hatred, suffering and sacrifice, random and inevitable.
