“The most curious instance of veneration in the Berners Hours appears not on a saint’s illumination, but on an image of a grave sinner.”

“However, some positive, or at least nuanced, interpretations of Judas’ role in the Passion saga exist, and these interpretations may explain the veneration in the Berners Hours.”
