The Lost Gospel of Judas

The National Geographic shows how the World Wide Web can be used to great effect with an online exhibition about the project to authenticate and conserve the 66 page codex that includes the only known surviving copy of the Gospel of Judas. It is possible to download both the English text and the Coptic text as PDF files, and to enlarge images of original fragments,

There is also a link to the May 2006 issue of National Geographic where you can read an online feature story about the discovery of the manuscript:
