Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother named Mary? And aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?

Then one of the twelve, the one named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

From that time on, Judas began looking for an opportunity to betray him.

Then Judas, the one who would betray him, said, "Surely not I, Rabbi?" Jesus replied, "You have said it yourself."

While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and elders of the people.

Now when Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that Jesus had been condemned, he regretted what he had done and returned the thirty silver coins to the chief priests and the elders,

So Judas threw the silver coins into the temple and left. Then he went out and hanged himself.

and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Isn't this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And aren't his sisters here with us?" And so they took offense at him.

Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus into their hands.

When they heard this, they were delighted and promised to give him money. So Judas began looking for an opportunity to betray him.

Right away, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. With him came a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and experts in the law and elders.

When Judas arrived, he went up to Jesus immediately and said, "Rabbi!" and kissed him.

Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

Then Satan entered Judas, the one called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve.

So Judas agreed and began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus when no crowd was present.

While he was still speaking, suddenly a crowd appeared, and the man named Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He walked up to Jesus to kiss him.

But Jesus said to him, "Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?"

(Now he said this about Judas son of Simon Iscariot, for Judas, one of the twelve, was going to betray him.)

But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was going to betray him) said,

(Now Judas said this not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money box, he used to steal what was put into it.)

The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, that he should betray Jesus.

Jesus replied, "It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread after I have dipped it in the dish." Then he dipped the piece of bread in the dish and gave it to Judas Iscariot, Simon's son.

And after Judas took the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, "What you are about to do, do quickly."

(Now none of those present at the table understood why Jesus said this to Judas.

Some thought that, because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him to buy whatever they needed for the feast, or to give something to the poor.)

Judas took the piece of bread and went out immediately. (Now it was night.)

When Judas had gone out, Jesus said, "Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.

"Lord," Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, "what has happened that you are going to reveal yourself to us and not to the world?"

(Now Judas, the one who betrayed him, knew the place too, because Jesus had met there many times with his disciples.)

So Judas obtained a squad of soldiers and some officers of the chief priests and Pharisees. They came to the orchard with lanterns and torches and weapons.

They replied, "Jesus the Nazarene." He told them, "I am he." (Now Judas, the one who betrayed him, was standing there with them.)

When they had entered Jerusalem, they went to the upstairs room where they were staying. Peter and John, and James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James were there.

"Brothers, the scripture had to be fulfilled that the Holy Spirit foretold through David concerning Judas -- who became the guide for those who arrested Jesus --

(Now this man Judas acquired a field with the reward of his unjust deed, and falling headfirst he burst open in the middle and all his intestines gushed out.

to assume the task of this service and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place."

After him Judas the Galilean arose in the days of the census, and incited people to follow him in revolt. He too was killed, and all who followed him were scattered.

Then the Lord told him, "Get up and go to the street called 'Straight,' and at Judas' house look for a man from Tarsus named Saul. For he is praying,

Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church, decided to send men chosen from among them, Judas called Barsabbas and Silas, leaders among the brothers, to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas.

Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas who will tell you these things themselves in person.

Both Judas and Silas, who were prophets themselves, encouraged and strengthened the brothers with a long speech.
