Jesus Christ Superstar (view source)
Revision as of 23:43, December 15, 2008

Judas is perhaps the most compelling of the characters, portrayed here not as a villain out to kill Jesus, but as someone convinced that Jesus is misguided and might bring further harm to the Jewish people and therefore should be stopped. Judas' death here is not due to madness, nor the destruction by evil forces as the Bible suggests, but instead hangs himself out of guilt for what he has done to his friend.
