Judas the ancient Undiyalaan
Wednesday, 08 March 2006
Many readers may already be aware of Judas, the 12th apostle whose name is often used as a synonym for the term traitor.
Judas was not just a traitor to Jesus but also an infamous money box thief -Undiyalaan-.
As Judas himself, and his close relatives had suffered at the hands of the devil, Jesus trusted Judas more than any of his apostles, says the Bible.
Because of the level of trust, Jesus made Judas the treasure of the Apostles, essentially the man in charge of the Money Box.
Apart from being the traitor who delivered 'the kiss of death' to Jesus, Judas also stole from the Money Box in order to buy a property in Jerusalem, reveals the Bible.
Incidentally, the same Judas had said; 'Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and given to poor people?' when Mary, the sister of Martha and Lazarus, wiped the feet of Jesus with costly perfume.
Historians believe that Judas attempted to weaver off suspicions by portraying himself as one who cares about the welfare of the poor.
A reader of Tamileditors.com asks if Undiyalaan could be trying cling on to banners such as 'democratic' and 'human rights' to keep investigations into the Elaprethshwarar Hindu temple Money Box theft at bay.
