Bible Question: Using the above Scripture, I have asked Christians if they know what it was that Judas did that earned him the title of "traitor" and no one has been able to answer this question. It seems Christians call Judas a traitor or betrayer because they read it elsewhere in a commentary or someone else says it and they parrot those same words that Judas "betrayed the Lord," but when asked if they can identify the act or acts that earned him the name of traitor no one knows. |
Bible Answer: Jeremiah: After 81 posts it's time you filled out something about yourself in the update user info. As most of have done so it would be nice to know more about you. Judas in Scripture has been said it would have been better if he had never been born. The quilt he felt (not repentance) caused him to kill himself. Judas was in the inner circle of those closest to Jesus. For Judas to turn Jesus in to be killed for 30 pieces of silver, is surely a betrayer, a traitor, would you not agree? justme |
