Judas, My Brother (1968) is a novel by Frank G. Yerby.

Abstract

The heavily footnoted novel provides a narrative attempting a demythologized account of the events surrounding Second Temple Judaism and the origins of Christianity as seen by the fictional character of Jesus’ “thirteenth disciple” Nathaniel.

"Frank Yerby's novel about a First Century Jewish scribe who becomes intimately involved in the life and times of Jesus is well written, engrossing, and historically adept at capturing the look and feel. All the characters you know from the gospels make an appearance here, from Barabbas to Joseph of Arimathea, and Yerby cleverly weaves the sayings of Jesus into the everyday conversations."--Publisher description.
