The impression generally prevails that Judas never was a good man, and the popular maxim goes abroad and has rung through the ages that "he was- a devil from the beginning." There is no such Scripture and never was. It is- counterfeited from John 6:70: '' And Jesus said unto them, Have I not chosen you twelve? and one of you is a devil." It does say that 1he had been from the beginning, but the verb is in the present tense. N. B. It is a wrong translation and entirely too strong, as the wordtranslated devil is a qualifying adjective and should read, "One of you i.s devilish."
