YUDAS MURID YANG TERHILANG? DISCOURSE ANALYSIS DARI PENELITIAN NARATOLOGI TERHADAP MATIUS 27:1-10

Abstract

The discourse analysis approach on the narration of Judas – usually claimed as the lost disciple- is an effort to reveal the tensions contained in the story related to the power and sense of guilty. The character’s dynamics of Judas and the Council of the Chief Priests and Elders were told and  performed by the narrator  using the discourse of the holy and unholy matters, in order to examine the  characterization in agency and/or  structural level. The narratological approach of the text then brings us as the reader to discern the tragic death of Judas as a critical point in one side, and also as a service to salvationic death of Jesus.
