bond: judas is a very strange character in the gospels. right from the very beginning, the moment we're introduced to him, we're told that he was the one who betrayed jesus, so there's never any uncertainty about that. one of the difficulties in the gospel texts is that we're not specifically told -- at least not by our earliest source, mark's gospel -- why judas did it. it's completely inexplicable. some people suggest that what judas was actually trying to do was to force jesus' hand, to get him to appear before the high priest and to push jesus into openly declaring who he was. maybe judas was hoping for a more political kingdom and got disillusioned with jesus. some people have suggested that judas was even doing jesus' bidding here, and ironically, in a way, is that, if it hadn't been for judas, and his betrayal, none of the final events of jesus' life would ever have happened. witherington: of all the canonical gospels, matthew's is the only one that explains to us judas' fate after his great act of betrayal. matthew says that he's s

what judas betrays to the authorities is that jesus was teaching this in private.o pontius pilate. >> pontius pilate was the roman governor of judea who had power of life and death over his jewish subjects and often used it. >> pontius pilate, the very year that jesus entered into jerusalem, was in a very difficult political position. and as a consequence of that, he agreed to help caiaphas and to pin the whole blame for what had occurred within the temple, the disturbance there involving jesus, on jesus himself. ♪ >> scholars think that the most accurate part of the gospels comes here at the end. the eyewitness details of his death by crucifixion, perhaps the most gruesome form of capital punishment ever devised. >> it was a case of a state organized around the principle of terror. and you pointed this terror at anyone who was seen as posing a threat or posing a potential threat. that certainly applied in the case of jesus. >> and to many others. the romans crucified up to 10,000 people during jesus' lifetime, often people just like himself. >> it wasn't unusual a

for 30 pieces of silver. >> the gospel of judas escariot?that there could be good news osh a gospel that is associated with the person who is most renowned as the betrayer of jesus. and now, lo and behold, a gospel of judas has been discovered, shedding more light on how provocative and interesting and insightful that 2nd century was, with all the diversity of thoughts so that even a figure like judas can be linked to the good news of jesus. >> so, too, can mary magdalene. for centuries mistakenly depicted as a repentant prostitute, she is the chief apostle in her own gnostic gospel and much more than that to jesus in the gnostic gospel of philip. >> in the gospel of philip, it is said that jesus loved mary magdalene more than all the other disciples, and he used to kiss her often on her, and then there is a likuna or hole in the text. we think probably it means on her lips, as a matter of fact, but it says something about the perception in that particular text of the closeness of jesus and mary magdalene. mary was a beloved disciple of jesu

ancient coins-- this was the money of palestine 2,000 years ago-- including the kind of silver coins judasas said to have been paid to betray christ. here is a map of the world, drawn 50 years before columbus; at its edge, the towers of paradise. and an immediate best seller, columbus' description of his voyage to the new world, published in 1493. in a certain way, the library is kind of the attic of western civilization. >> father michael collins: it's so true. and it's like many attics, you know? you put things up all the time. you keep on pushing over boxes to make space for more things. >> safer: father michael collins is an irish priest who's written extensively about the vatican, where the library's shelves, if you put them end to end, would stretch for 31 miles. is there anyone, any single person who really knows what the library holds? >> collins: nobody knows exactly what's there, because it will be impossible for the human brain to understand, to remember the titles, who wrote it, when they were written. >> monsignor cesare pasini: it is quite a treasure of humanity that you have

reducing the number of stops of eight of its bus and light rail routes including the five fulton and juda and j church. muni says a detailed plan will be released in february. >>> 6:18 is the time. i just have to mention since tara is here, claudine is coming in, i'm here. the bruins are in town, tara. with able and football in town tomorrow. >> surrounded by bruins. >> oh yes. die hard fans. >>> traffic okay but tonight in san francisco we are actually going to have major issues. we have critical mass going on at justin herman plaza starting at 6:00. make sure you allow yourself extra time if you need to get in and around san francisco. right now we will take a live look at the san mateo bridge where there is still some heavy fog being reported right there at the toll plaza. so make sure you drive slowly. keep the low beams on. a look at the east shore freeway shows traffic is moving along nicely. and finally we have a look at 880 near the oakland coliseum. same story. pretty dark out there. we do have things we want to tell you about regarding parking in san francisco coming up on monda

they th is something they posted on their website today, entitled, newt gingrich judas. >> we don't alwaysee eye to eye, do we newt? >> no. but we do agree our country must take action it address climate change. >> sitting on the couch with nancy pelosi is the dumbest single thing i've done. >>> howard, that sort of thing looks a lolt more damaging than an editorial of any sort in the establishment media. >> sure, of course. and it's the evangelicals doing that and also ron paul attacking newt gingrich. ron paul is hardly an establishment character. but newt has put himself in a position here, that everybody's going to have to attack him and i think everybody will attack him from now to election day in iowa. to caucus day in iowa. and that's the kind of environment that is steel cage death match environment in which he thrives in the combat of it. but karen is absolutely right. you talk to people who work with newt. it is funny. most of the people closest to newt, not all, but most of the people who are closest to newt are the ones who privately and sometimes even publicly say, oh, my god,

monetary elections or he anticipated this accusation of election fraud and he said these people are judas's who are not traitors, do this's, very heavy language, very charged language and this was such wording that really brought a chill down my spine and especially the people who were involved in this monitoring. now anyone who took the grand for their ngo would be under threat and immediately three duma members wrote a letter to the prosecutor's office, initiating, where's the prosecutor's office? where's the tax service and what are they doing not going after the goalless. gryzlov was fined $4000 hopefully they were not and growth by that and it looked like the cord did with the higher-ups wanted but at the same time did not shut gryzlov down, so people are hedging bets and another point is people are hedging bets as mr. putin and mr. medvedev themselves. i would like to find out today from mr. putin's spokesman and from medvedev's spokesman who expressed in their press conferences that neither putin nor medvedev are members of united russia party. hello. they are just leaders of the par
