Judas Iscariot: The Ultimate Betrayal #truth #jesus #history #motivation #faith

Judas Iscariot was one of Jesus' twelve disciples and known as one of his closest followers. During the Last Supper, Jesus revealed that one of his disciples would betray him, making Judas' plans clear. Judas made a deal with the chief priests to betray Jesus for 30 pieces of silver, becoming one of history's most infamous figures. Later that night, Judas led a group of soldiers and religious leaders to the Garden of Gethsemane and greeted Jesus, signaling his arrest. After Jesus was condemned and crucified, Judas felt deep remorse. He returned the silver to the chief priests, saying, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood," and then threw the money into the temple and hanged himself. This story illustrates the powerful emotions of regret and guilt.
