Greetings Dperk5! The exact coinage is never specified. The verses all say, "30 of silver". So, the value would depend upon the weight of the coinage used. It would be like us today saying, "I was paid 30 bills". Which bills? Dollar bills? 1,000 dollar bills? Some say that is could be as much as 2 1/2 years wages for a common worker, while others say it may have been an insignificant amount - since it was the price of a slave. We simply don't know! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
