Acts 1:16-20 Men and brothers, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled… From these learn — 1. How great a sin avarice is, and to what a depth of wickedness it precipitates a man. 2. How deep the fall of those who fall from great grace and from high privileges. 3. How grievous the sin of desperation. It was this which made the difference between the sin of the traitor and that of the denier. (Cornelius Lapide.)
