The New International Version
The NIV offers a balance between a word-for-word and thought-for-thought translation and is considered by many as a highly accurate and smooth-reading version of the Bible in modern English.
Everything is not in the Bible. Things happened at that time that were not written about. Otherwise the volumn would be thousands and thousands of pages and there would be many other entries than just what some consider the apostles. So did it happen or not. You have no more proof that it did than if it may not have. And what it appears to be is what the possibility was I said from my point of view. It was a picture of Christ administering Judas because the artist said it was. It’s ll interpretation. Kind of like trying to interpret abstract art. It’s what you see.
And if it didn’t happen, then why is it in Pope Francis’ private office on his wall? I’m not saying it did, but we do not know the where abouts of Christ all the time after his rising. So is it or not. And since the Pope has it on his wall, could it. For that, ask him. He’s the one displaying it.

And you're the one defending it.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
Do you truly believe that a naked Christ could have forgiven a dead Judas, the lost "son of perditition"?
And since when does one need a "smooth-reading" Bible that omits "having been hanged"? Is that too "rough" for you?
