- Matthew 20:18
“Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death
Commentary on Matthew 20:182 voices
There is no mention that the disciples either said or did any thing upon hearing of these sufferings that should thus come upon Christ; remembering what the Lord had said to Peter, they were afraid they should have had the like or worse addressed to themselves.
Origen of Alexandria· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 253Patristic
He had often told His disciples of His passion, but because it might have slipped out of their recollection by reason of the many things they had heard in the mean while, now when He is going to Jerusalem, and going to take His disciples with Him, He fortifies them against the trial, that they should not be scandalized when the persecution and shame of the Cross should come.
Jerome· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 420Patristic
- Matthew 24:10
At that time many will fall away and will betray and hate one another,
Commentary on Matthew 24:101 voice
If we ought to understand this passage in the moral sense, in accordance with how we treated the passages above, then we will explain its meaning as follows.
Origen of Alexandria· COMMENTARY ON MATTHEW 39, 253Patristic
- Matthew 26:14–16
Then one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests
Commentary on Matthew 26:14–161 voice
Judas means "confessor." Luke the Evangelist numbers both "Judas the son of James and Judas Iscariot" among the twelve apostles. Since two of Christ's disciples were given this same name and since there can be no meaningless symbol in the Christian mystery, I am convinced that the two Judases represent two distinct types of confessing Christians. The first, symbolized by Judas the son of James, perseveres in remaining faithful to Christ. The second type, however, after once believing and professing faith in Christ, then abandons him out of greed.
Origen of Alexandria· COMMENTARY ON MATTHEW 78, 253Patristic
- Matthew 26:45–50
Then He returned to the disciples and said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Commentary on Matthew 26:45–501 voice
Having concluded His third prayer, and having obtained that the Apostles' terror should be corrected by subsequent penitence, He goes forth undaunted by the prospect of His own Passion to meet His pursuers, and offers Himself voluntarily to be sacrificed. Arise, let us be going; as much as to say, Let them not find you trembling, let us go forth willingly to death, that they may see us confident and rejoicing in suffering; Lo, he that shall betray me draweth near.
Jerome· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 420Patristic
- Mark 14:10
Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.
Commentary on Mark 14:101 voice
(ὁ περὶ τὸν βασιλέα χορὸς ap. Chrys.) But he was one of the twelve in number, not in merit, one in body, not in soul. But he went to the Chief Priests after he went out and Satan entered into him. Every living thing unites with what is like itself. And he promises to betray Him, as his master the devil said before, All this power I will give thee. (Luke 4:6) It goes on, And when they heard it they were glad, and promised to give him money.
Pseudo-Jerome· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 9999Patristic
- Mark 14:11
They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.
Commentary on Mark 14:112 voices

Pseudo-Jerome· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 9999Patristic
He is sold, and cheap was the price—thirty pieces of silver; yet he buys back the world at the mighty cost of his own blood. A sheep, he is led to the slaughter—yet he shepherds Israel and now the whole world as well.
Gregory of Nazianzus· ORATION 29, ON THE SON 20, 390Patristic
- Luke 22:3–6
Then Satan entered Judas Iscariot, who was one of the Twelve.
Commentary on Luke 22:3–61 voice
Jesus Christ our Savior has been crucified. The author of this crime and father of this wickedness is, without doubt, the devil. It is written: "When, however, the devil had entered the heart of Judas Iscariot that he should betray him." The devil is the father of sin. He fathered Judas as his first son in this wickedness, but Judas alone could not execute the betrayal. What then is written?
Origen of Alexandria· HOMILIES ON EXODUS 8.6, 253Patristic
- Luke 22:47
While He was still speaking, a crowd arrived, led by the man called Judas, one of the Twelve. He approached Jesus to kiss Him.
Commentary on Luke 22:471 voice
The great significance of divine power, the great discipline of virtue. And the plan of betrayal is revealed, and yet patience is not denied. You have shown, Lord, who would betray, while you reveal hidden things. You have also shown whom he would deliver, while you say: Son of man; because flesh, not divinity, can be understood. However, the fact that he handed him over contradicts even more the ungrateful, that he, although being the Son of God, yet wanted to be the Son of man for our sake.
Ambrose of Milan· EXPOSITION OF THE GOSPEL OF LUKE 10.63-64, 397Patristic
- Luke 22:48
But Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
Commentary on Luke 22:482 voices

Ambrose of Milan· EXPOSITION OF THE GOSPEL OF LUKE 10.63-64, 397Patristic
It must be used I think by way of question, as if he arrests the traitor with a lover's affection. He says, Betrayest thou with a kiss? that is, dost thou inflict a wound with the pledge of love? with the instruments of peace dost thou impose death? a slave, dost thou betray thy Lord; a disciple, thy master; one chosen, Him who chose thee? O great manifestation of Divine power, great discipline of virtue! Both the design of thy traitor is detected, and yet forbearance is not withheld.
Ambrose of Milan· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 397Patristic
- John 13:21
After Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit and testified, “Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”
Commentary on John 13:211 voice
Who is there among living men who would not feel plainly convinced that our human faculties are incapable of supplying either ideas or words which may at all express, in an irreproachable and infallible manner, the attributes peculiar to that nature which is both Divine and ineffable? Therefore we depend on the words of which our faculties are capable, as a feeble medium of expressing such things as pass our understanding. For how can we speak with clear fulness on a subject that really transcends the very limits of our comprehension?
Cyril of Alexandria· Commentary on the Gospel of John, Book 9, 444Patristic
