About this ebook

In the year 2023, after a nuclear Armageddon, only a few pockets of people have survived. One of these groups of survivors, mostly rock climbers and mountaineers, subsists through the leadership of Jude, a biblical archaeologist and rock climber. Jude is given a chance to go back in time by using an invention of a surviving U.S. scientist.
Jude is transported back to Palestine during the first century, where he searches for Jesus, to verify if he truly was the Messiah, or a charlatan. Dying from nuclear cancer, Jude spends most of his given time looking for Jesus, finally finding him meditating on a mountaintop.
Jude, mesmerized by Ishias (Jesus) power becomes his first follower and best friend, Judas. His friendship and his knowledge of Ishia of Nazerat become the pivotal force in the last three years of their lives. Jude becomes the Judas, torn apart between being Ishias beloved friend and being his betrayer. The shocking and controversial ending is for you, the reader, to read and discover. It will tear at your very soul but it will rejuvenate and strengthen your faith in Jesus Christ. A must for every Christian to read!

Author

Vincent L. Di Paolo

Vincent L. Di Paolo is a well-known archaeological artist, educator, scientist and writer. He has been fascinated with the cosmos since his first Cosmology course in 1966; and, he has been studying the human brain since 1980. He studied at Saint Joseph Teacher’s College, at Loyola, at McGill University, at University of Virginia in Northern Virginia and at George Mason University. He has taught physics, chemistry, algebra, geometry, world history and geography, physical education, ESOL and fine arts from 1970 to 2015. As an artist, Vincent has produced hundreds of paintings, ink drawings, bronze sculptures, and over two thousands aquatints and lithographs since 1954. He has done over seventy art shows and his work is found in over thirty countries. Many of his shows were for children’s benefits (to raise money for hospitals and schools). He has traveled extensively exploring and painting ancient ruins and animals in their habitats throughout the world. Since 1980 he has been studying and researching on how the brain develops and how it learns, on the differentiated myelinations between boys and girls, and how nutrition affects myelin production, neurotransmitters, learning, memory and longevity. He has practiced martial arts (Judo, Wing Chun and Tae-kwon-do) since 1963. He is also a mountaineer and rock-climber. Presently, he is writing “Children of Yahweh”, the sequel to his “My Beloved Friend, Judas”. He is also working on the following novels: “Angel of Light”, “Orion”, “The Secret of Sierra Madre de Dios”, and “Kit Carson and the Amulet of the Gods”. He is divorced and lives in Northern Virginia with Joey and Abigail, his beautiful little Shih-tzu and gorgeous Calico cat. He has two adult children, Alexandra and David.
