The Dust of Gethsemane : When Man Betrayed God

This novel of historical fiction is set in the days following the execution of Jesus Christ when pain and hostility blindly converge in Jerusalem. Judas Iscariot, despite following Jesus devoutly for years, delivered him to his death and now, struggling beneath the weight of his guilt, questions his actions and morality. While marching against the sands of time, sharing his recollections, and examining the road before him, Judas finds some solace in an unlikely companion. As he searches for belonging in a now seemingly meaningless existence, one thing is certain, one hand washes the other before returning to dust. From the perspective of Judas, this book explores potential motives behind one of the most infamous acts of treachery while delving into the psyche of a tortured soul.
