What does the Bible say about Judas's betrayal of Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes Judas as a close companion of Jesus who ultimately betrayed Him, illustrating the depth of human sin and deceit.

In the Gospels, Judas Iscariot is portrayed as one of the twelve disciples who, despite being a trusted companion and a preacher of repentance, betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. This act is portrayed as a fulfillment of prophecy and highlights the treachery inherent in the human heart. Jesus addressed Judas as 'Friend,' showing His capacity for love and forgiveness despite the betrayal, which emphasizes the theme of grace amidst human failure (Matthew 26:50, Psalms 41:9). Judas's actions serve as a stark reminder of the deceitfulness of sin and the importance of spiritual vigilance.
