there is something so blursed about jesus christ superstar. the music is unimaginably catchy. it seems like every production is fated to have one element that makes it unrecommendable to all your friends no matter how much you love the rest of it. it is almost explicitly textual that judas is in love with jesus. mary magdalene is absolutely implied to still be working as a prostitute for the entire duration of the show. every year it makes a new crop of teens crack open ao3 to read jesus/judas porn. there's one section of a song that is just jesus getting whipped on stage for two straight minutes. I once saw a production where king herod was a drag queen.

This is an aspect of this time-honored story that sometimes troubles me, and I know that different Biblical scholars as well as different lay people have very different views on it.

Note #1: Please don't reblog with answers that only relate to adaptations of the story. For example, "What he does is wrong, but his wife Asenath calls him out on it and urges him to forgive them." Not in the Bible she doesn't. No one calls him out in the original text.

Note #2: Christians are free to reblog and offer opinions – this is a Biblical subject after all – but please don't preach to me about Jesus. This story isn't about Jesus. It predates Jesus by many centuries. Besides, for the time being, I'm looking at it more from a character analysis perspective than a religious perspective.

Note #3: Please don't be antisemitic. The (arguable) moral grayness of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament heroes has nothing to do with either their Jewishness or the fact that they lived before Jesus.
