Greed. Judas was paid for betraying Jesus.
The religious leaders paid Judas a surety for his testimony. A surety is money that is paid to someone, guaranteeing they will fulfill their end of an agreement. In order to take Jesus to the Roman authorities (who alone had the power to put Him to death), they needed two witnesses to testify to the fact that Jesus claimed to be the King of Israel. Judas was the first of those witnesses, and they paid him thirty pieces of silver to guarantee his appearance at the trial.
It is highly probable that, like the other twelve disciples, Judas was convinced that Jesus was Judaism's long-awaited Messiah. And it is very possible that Judas, in his convictions, wanted the religious leaders to see what he had seen, to hear what he had heard, and to come to the same realization that he himself had arrived at: namely, that Jesus was their King.
And, in handing Him over to them, and offering his testimony as evidence to the fact, Judas may have thought to put the religious leaders in a position to finally, once and for all, see Jesus for who he genuinely believed He was: the highly anticipated King of the Jews.

Judas Iscariot was the 13th person at the Last Supper, and he betrayed Jesus Christ, and was thought to be possessed by Satan himself. It might also have to do with the fact that Judas' Satanic decision to betray Christ cost Judas his own sanity, which caused him to commit suicide.

The bible says that it is better to have NEVER known Him (Jesus) than to have known him and then dis-own him. But that's what Judas did. He had known salvation from hearing and learning first-hand from Jesus and yet chose to give it up for 30 pieces of silver? It was his choice - and a bad one!

Did Judas betray Jesus if yes why and what did he get in return?
In answer to the first part of your question, yes, Judas Iscariot (not to be confused with another of Jesus' twelve disciples who was also named Judas) did betray Jesus to the Jewish authorities. There are a number of theories as to why Judas betrayed Him: * Judas was growing impatient and perhaps disillusioned with Jesus because it was not as "action-oriented" as Judas (as a Jew) had been taught and believed the Messiah's coming would be. * Judas was a zealot (a group that advocated the violent overthrow of Roman rule by any means necessary) and he believed that if Jesus were arrested by the Roman authorities, it might be the "spark" to cause a general uprising of the people and overthrow the Romans. * Simple greed There are other theories but these are the most common. What Judas got in return was thirty pieces of silver from the Jewish authorities at the temple (one interesting fact about the amount is that thirty pieces of silver was the "going rate" for a slave on the open market). He did not, however, ultimately benefit from the money: beset by grief at what he had done, he attempted to return the money. The Jewish leaders would not accept it because it was "blood money". Ultimately, he left the silver at the temple anyway, went out, and hanged himself. (The thirty pieces of silver, incidentally, were used by the Jewish leaders to purchase a potter's field for the burial of the poor)

What did Judas iscariot do?
Judas iscariot was the one who betrayed Jesus to the Pharisees for 30 pieces of silver. He took them to the place where Jesus and his disciples where, and then he gave Jesus a kiss, to show them which one was Jesus. This might sound weird, if it weren't for the fact that Jesus would have looked so ordinary they couldn't tell him apart from anyone else. Also, giving his 'master,' Jesus, a kiss would not have appeared strange in bible times. That would be an ordinary way to greet a great friend...
Was Judas predestined to go to hell?
first of all he commited a horrible sin- and was party to the execution of Christ- a co-conspirator as it were. second he took his own life in nothing that would be called a sacrificial mode- suicide is its own punishment, so they say. sorry, no energy crisis where Judas wound up!Another Point of View:Who are we to say the depth of God's mercy? God sent His only begotton Son, not to condemm the world, but to save the world, so that whosoever believe might be saved. This is a gift with no strings. Judas probably believed. That's probably why he took his life. He met the criteria for salvation - belief. Besides, someone had to betray Jesus in order for scripture to be fulfilled - wouldn't it make sense that Judas was simply doing his agreed role, painful as it might have been to him?

Who pointed Jesus out?
I assume your question "Who pointed out Jesus" is related to the Apostle who betrayed him. Your answer can be found in Mark 14, remember Judas did not work alone... 14 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death. 2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people 10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them. 11 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him. Jesus knew who he was 18 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me. 19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I? 20 And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish. 21 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born. The event 42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand. 43 And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. 44 And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.
