The Book of Belial is Judas' starting item. It provides a temporary damage increase of 1 or 2 points and has a recharge of only 3 rooms. While its usefulness diminishes in later stages of the game, it can significantly ease the early levels. Holding onto the Book of Belial also increases the chance of a Devil Room appearing.
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth Book of Revelations
The Book of Revelations is an item in The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth. It is located at Table Position Row 6, Column 10 and has a room recharge of 6 rooms. When used, it grants the character a Soul Heart. If held when defeating the level boss, it makes the Devil Room much more likely to appear and increases the chance that the boss battle will be one of the Harbingers.
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth Book of Shadows
The Book of Shadows is an item in The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth. It is located at Table Position Row 7, Column 5 and has a room recharge of 3 rooms. Its effect creates a shield around the character for a few seconds, protecting from both projectile and touch attacks, rendering the character invincible during this time. The shield flashes when it is about to disappear. While useful for dire circumstances, its short invincibility duration and 3-room recharge make it less critical if you play carefully.
