Matthew 27:3-10 - The Suicide Of Judas Iscariot
3 Then when Judas, his betrayer, saw that he was condemned, he repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders. 4 "I have sinned," he said, "in betraying innocent blood!" "What is that to us?" they answered; "you must see to that."
5 And flinging down the silver into the Sanctuary, he rushed out, and went and hanged himself.
6 The chief priests took the money, and said, "It would be wrong to put it into the temple-treasury, because it is the price of blood." 7 So after the consultation they bought the Potter's Field with it, for a burial-place for strangers. 8 That is the reason why, to this day, the field is called "The Field of Blood." 9 Then was fulfilled the word spoken by the prophet Jeremiah. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him who had been priced, whom certain of the Children of Israel had priced; 10 and gave them for the Potter's Field, as the Lord had appointed me.
