Judas Iscariot is one of the most infamous figures in the New Testament, known primarily for his betrayal of Jesus Christ. The name "Judas" was common in the first century, derived from the Hebrew name Judah, meaning "praise." "Iscariot" likely indicates his place of origin, possibly Kerioth, a town in Judea, distinguishing him from other Judases in the New Testament. The mention of his father, Simon, further identifies him, emphasizing his human lineage and grounding his historical existence. Judas's role as a disciple highlights the paradox of being close to Jesus yet choosing betrayal, reflecting the theme of free will and the mystery of iniquity. For although Judas was one of the Twelve, he was later to betray Jesus. Persons / Places / Events 1. Judas IscariotOne of the twelve disciples of Jesus, known for betraying Jesus to the religious authorities for thirty pieces of silver. His actions fulfilled Old Testament prophecies about betrayal. 2. Simon Iscariot The father of Judas Iscariot. Not much is known about him, but his mention highlights Judas's familial background. 3. The Twelve Disciples The group of Jesus' closest followers, chosen by Him to learn from His teachings and to spread His message. Judas was part of this inner circle, which makes his betrayal more poignant. 4. Betrayal of Jesus A pivotal event in the New Testament, leading to Jesus' arrest, trial, and crucifixion. Judas's betrayal is a key element in the Passion account. 5. Jesus The central figure of Christianity, whose life, death, and resurrection are the foundation of Christian faith. His foreknowledge of Judas's betrayal demonstrates His divine insight. Teaching Points Foreknowledge and Sovereignty of JesusJesus knew Judas would betray Him, yet He chose him as a disciple. This highlights Jesus' divine foreknowledge and the fulfillment of God's sovereign plan. The Danger of Unchecked Sin Judas's betrayal serves as a warning about the dangers of unchecked sin, such as greed and deceit, which can lead to devastating consequences. The Importance of Genuine Faith Being close to Jesus physically, as Judas was, does not equate to genuine faith. True discipleship requires a heart transformation and commitment to Christ. God's Redemptive Plan Despite Judas's betrayal, God's redemptive plan through Jesus' death and resurrection was accomplished. This assures believers of God's ability to work through even the darkest circumstances. Self-Examination and Repentance Judas's account encourages believers to examine their own hearts for areas of potential betrayal or unfaithfulness and to seek repentance and restoration.(71) Judas Iscariot the son of Simon.--The best MSS. read, Judas, the son of Simon Iscariotes. On the name see the list of the Apostles in Matthew 10:4. If we accept the most probable interpretation of Iscariot as Ish K'r?oth, a man of K'r?oth,--and this is supported by the variation of MSS. in this place, some of which read "from Kariotes," and the best of which, as we see, apply the title Iscariot to Simon--then Judas belonged to the tribe of Judah (Joshua 15:25), and is the only one of the Apostles who was not a Galilean (Acts 2:7). This connects itself with the antagonistic position of the Jews from Jerusalem. That should betray him.--Not indicating that Judas was then planning the betrayal. (Comp. John 13:2.) This remark is made by the writer to explain the strong words of the previous verse. Being one of the twelve.--Or, although he was one of the Twelve, the exact shade of meaning of the participle being defined by the context. It marks, again, the tragic contrast between what might have been expected and what was actually realised. One of the Twelve, devil! one of the Twelve, the betrayer! Verse 71. - Now he spake concerning Judas the son of Simon the Iscariot being one of the twelve. (For this use of ἔλεγε, see John 9:19; Mark 14:71.) Iscariot is most probably "of Kerioth," a town of Judah, mentioned in Joshua 15:25, though Westcott cites another Kerioth in Moab (Jeremiah 48:44). If this Kerioth, which Simon and his son Judas have degraded, be the Kerioth-Hezron, then it would seem that Judas was the only Judaean among the apostles. For he it was that was about to betray him being one of the twelve (cf. ver. 64). Ὁ παραδώσων gives a somewhat different turn of description to the futurity of the deed. Had it yet fully dawned on the soul of the traitor? Had he laid any plans to bring his Master to the point from which he turned so divinely? We know not.
