There is a common myth that the Judas Tree is called so because Judas Iscariot hanged himself from this type of tree. However, this is most likely derived from the French name Arbre de Judée meaning tree of Judea. Judea is a region in the Land of Israel where the tree occurs.

What else can I help you with?
