Holman Christian Standard Bible
The chief priests took the silver and said, "It's not lawful to put it into the temple treasury, since it is blood money."

It is not.

Luke 6:7-9 And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal …

to put.

Isaiah 61:8 For I the LORD love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; …

because. The Jews considered it was strictly forbidden by the Divine law to bring any filthy or iniquitous gain into the temple. For this reason they now refused to allow this money to be placed in the chest in the temple, amongst the former contributions for its repairs. In this, they were right enough, but by the very act of refusing this money, they proved themselves to be gross perverters of the spirit of God's requirements: they saw not that it was much less lawful for them, who had hired Judas to this sordid action, to be employed in the service of the temple. Those that 'bear the vessels of the Lord,' ought to be holy. Thus our Lord's words, 'Ye blind guides! ye strain at a gnat and swallow a camel.'
