- Psalms 41:9
Even my close friend whom I trusted, the one who shared my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
Commentary on Psalms 41:91 voice
We need not imagine that Jesus did not know that Judas was going to betray him.… Of course Jesus knew it. But in order to emphasize how damnable was the deed, Jesus speaks of the hopes he had held regarding Judas' loyalty.… We come down more heavily on one in whom we say we had high hopes or great trust, if afterwards that person robs us of our hope and high opinion.… This is why Jesus says that he had hoped, it was as though he had a right to hope.
Ambrose of Milan· COMMENTARY ON TWELVE PSALMS 41:21-22, 397Patristic
- Psalms 109:8
May his days be few; may another take his position.
Commentary on Psalms 109:81 voice
Let his days be few. His days were made few, but his nights increased: for he was cut off in the middle of his days. The sun withdrew from him, and behold, darkness was multiplied for him. And let another receive his episcopate. This too is interpreted more plainly in the Acts of the Apostles. But it was not only spoken of Judas in that time, it is spoken even to this day. If Judas lost his apostleship, let priests and bishops guard themselves, lest they too lose their own priesthood.
Jerome· Homily 35, on Psalm 108, 420Patristic
- Zechariah 11:12
Then I told them, “If it seems right to you, give me my wages; but if not, keep them.” So they weighed out my wages, thirty pieces of silver.
Commentary on Zechariah 11:121 voice
(Verse 12, 13.) And I said to them: If it is good in your eyes, give me my reward, and if not, stop; and they gave me my reward, thirty pieces of silver. And the Lord said to me, Throw them (Vulgate: it) to the potter, a handsome price at which I was appraised by them: and I took the thirty pieces of silver, and threw them into the house of the Lord to the potter. LXX: And I will say to them: If it is good in your sight, give those who determine my reward, or refuse.
Jerome· Commentary on Zechariah, 420Patristic
- Zechariah 11:13
And the LORD said to me, “Throw it to the potter”—this magnificent price at which they valued me. So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the potter in the house of the LORD.
Commentary on Zechariah 11:132 voices
And the Lord said unto me,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
(Verse 12, 13.) And I said to them: If it is good in your eyes, give me my reward, and if not, stop; and they gave me my reward, thirty pieces of silver. And the Lord said to me, Throw them (Vulgate: it) to the potter, a handsome price at which I was appraised by them: and I took the thirty pieces of silver, and threw them into the house of the Lord to the potter. LXX: And I will say to them: If it is good in your sight, give those who determine my reward, or refuse.
Jerome· Commentary on Zechariah, 420Patristic
- Matthew 10:4
Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.
Commentary on Matthew 10:41 voice
(Verse 4.) Simon the Cananaean. He is the one who is referred to in another Gospel (Luke VI) as Zealot. For Chana means zeal. Thaddaeus the apostle is said in the Ecclesiastical History to have been sent to King Abgar of Edessa, who is called by the evangelist Luke Judas, the son of James; and elsewhere he is called Lebbaeus (Acts I), which means little heart.
Jerome· Commentary on Matthew, 420Patristic
- Matthew 13:55
“Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t His mother’s name Mary, and aren’t His brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?
Commentary on Matthew 13:551 voice
(Verse 55, 56.) Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother called Mary, and his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? And aren't all his sisters with us? Where then did he get all these things? And they took offense at him. The error of the Jews is our salvation, and the condemnation of the heretics. For they saw Jesus Christ merely as a man, so that the carpenters thought him to be the son: Isn't this the carpenter's son? Are you surprised if they err about his brothers, when they err about his father?
Jerome· Commentary on Matthew, 420Patristic
- 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 26:21–25
And while they were eating, He said to them, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”
Commentary on Matthew 26:21–251 voice
(Verse 21.) And while they were eating, he said: Amen I say to you: that one of you will betray me. He who had foretold of his passion also predicts the traitor, giving him an opportunity for repentance, so that when he understands his own thoughts and hidden plans, he may repent of his actions, and yet he does not specifically identify him, so that he may not be openly accused and become more shameless. He attributes the crime to a number, so that the guilty party may repent.
Jerome· Commentary on Matthew, 420Patristic
- Matthew 26:47–50
While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.
Commentary on Matthew 26:47–502 voices
(Verse 46, 47) Get up, let's go, behold the one who will betray me is approaching. While He was still speaking, behold Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and elders of the people. Let us not be found as if fearing and retreating, let us willingly go towards death, so that they may see the confidence and joy we will endure.
Jerome· Commentary on Matthew, 420Patristic
Some may say that a great multitude came, because of the great multitude of those who already believed, who, they feared, might rescue Him out of their hands; but I think there is another reason for this, and that is, that they who thought that He cast out dæmons through Beelzebub, supposed that by some magic He might escape the hands of those who sought to hold Him.
Origen of Alexandria· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 253Patristic
- Matthew 27:3–10
When Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was filled with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders.
Commentary on Matthew 27:3–101 voice
Then seeing Judas, who had betrayed Him, that He was condemned, being moved by repentance, he returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, saying: I have sinned in betraying innocent blood. He cast away the weight of impiety from the greatness of his greed. Seeing that the Lord was condemned to death, Judas returned the price to the priests, as if he had the power to change the sentence of those who persecuted. Therefore, although he changed his will, he did not change the outcome of his first intention.
Jerome· Commentary on Matthew, 420Patristic
- Matthew 27:5
So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.
Commentary on Matthew 27:51 voice
(Verse 5.) But they said: What is that to us? You see. And throwing the silver coins into the temple, he left: and going away, he hanged himself. It availed him nothing to have repented, by which he could not correct his crime. If at any time a brother sins against his brother, so that he is able to amend what he has sinned, it can be forgiven to him. But if his works remain, repentance is taken up in vain with words.
Jerome· Commentary on Matthew, 420Patristic
- Mark 3:19
and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.
Commentary on Mark 3:191 voice
But Judas Iscariot is one who does not do away his sins by repentance. For Judas means 'boaster,' or vain-glorious. And Iscariot, 'the memory of death.' But many are the proud and vain-glorious confessors in the Church, as Simon Magus, and Arius, and other heretics, whose deathlike memory is celebrated in the Church, that it may be avoided.
Pseudo-Jerome· Catena Aurea by Aquinas, 9999Patristic
- Mark 6:3
Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? Aren’t His sisters here with us as well?” And they took offense at Him.
- Mark 14:10
Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.
- 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 14:111 voice
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
- Mark 14:18–21
And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”
Commentary on Mark 14:18–211 voice
While he might have at once specially pointed out the betrayer, he did not do so, but said generally, "One of you will betray me," so the character of each might be tested by the witness of his astonished heart. This underscored the goodness of the disciples who believed Christ's words more than their own consciousness, and the wickedness of Judas because he did not believe the One who knew his plans. He embraced the obscurity by lying through his own teeth.
