Indeed. Judas wasn't the bad guy, judas was a part of gods plan. More thematically, judas stands in for all of us (or, more specifically, all of them, the man is literally called judah) - our own hearts betrayal presaging the outward betrayal of others, and the remorse it engenders in us all. Factually speaking, though, the whole storyline is obvious fiction. Work it out in your head. There's this belligerant out there in public every day making trouble for rome. Everybody knew about it, even the locals hated his guts...and he's not hiding ...so they could pluck him anytime they wanted to. ......but they needed some rando to find him in a made-for-a-tv-movie scene that just also happens to be yet another opportunity for the demigod to comment on his worldview to the viewer?
No. It's a pretty straightforward retelling of exactly the same thing that every "prophet" of the ot was always droning on about as they got rolled by empire after empire aiming through them at each other. Judah has betrayed it's god to the foreigners.
