The Pope seems to strongly imply that the Jewish priests were legitimate. We know from the gospels that Jesus continually railed against those who outwardly appeared pious and yet inwardly were unrepentant, did not recognize the true Messiah in front of them, and were filled with pride and hearts of stone.

Is the Pope actually suggesting these “priests” were legit and could have moved Judas to repentance?

Wow, if that’s what he’s saying then it shows a stark and frightening misunderstanding of the Scriptures.

The Pope seems to strongly imply that the Jewish priests were legitimate.

And casts Judas Iscariot in a sympathetic light (as did Josef Goebbels in one of his plays, IIRC).

Wow, if that’s what he’s saying then it shows a stark and frightening misunderstanding of the Scriptures.

Or a deliberate misrepresentation.
