Jesus Judas Paid Pieces Repents Reward Testament Throws Betraying
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the poignant moment of Judas Iscariot's remorse, as he throws the thirty pieces of silver he received as a reward for betraying Jesus Christ. The biblical narrative of this event is found in the New Testament of the Christian Bible, specifically in the books of Matthew (26:14-16, 24-25), Mark (14:10-11, 43-45), and Luke (22:3-6, 47-48). Judas, one of the twelve apostles chosen by Jesus, was persuaded by the religious leaders to betray his master in exchange for thirty pieces of silver. The betrayal led to Jesus' arrest and eventual crucifixion. However, after realizing the gravity of his actions, Judas was filled with regret and remorse. He returned the silver to the chief priests and elders, exclaiming, "I have sinned in betraying innocent blood." (Matthew 27:4) This historical event holds significant importance in Christian tradition, symbolizing the consequences of betrayal and the power of repentance. The thirty pieces of silver are often interpreted as a foreshadowing of the thirty pieces of silver given to Potiphar's wife in Genesis 39:6, which were used to buy a burial plot for Joseph. This print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Bible and the profound impact of its stories on art and culture.
