30 pieces of silver - 30 denarii. In real terms this is around a month's wages as the standard rate for a day's wages was 1 silver coin.

Thirty pieces of silver ($66, if shekels) was the price offered. (Matthew 26:14, 15) The sum fixed by the religious leaders appears designed to show their contempt of Jesus, viewing him as of little value.

Mat 26:15 and asked, "What will you give me if I betray Jesus to you?" They counted out thirty silver coins and gave them to him.

I have read that this was about the price of a servant or in today's money less than NZ$20.

A:

Alone among the New Testament gospels, Matthew says that Judas received thirty pieces of silver. The first account to be written, Mark 14:10, says the priests gave him money; Luke's Gospel follows Mark in simply saying "money." In the same way, Acts 1:18 simply refers to the "reward of iniquity." If Matthew's Gospel is correct, Judas received thirty pieces of silver, but scholars say that the author was actually relying on imagery from the Old Testament, not historical fact.

Did Judas Iscariot work in the church?

No Judas did not work in the "church". There were no "churches" as we know them today. In Israel where all the gospel took place there was the temple in Jerusalem and then in other towns and villages there were Synagogues. But the only workers in these places of worship were the priest's and others from the tribe of Levi. We are not told much about Judas before he attached himself to Jesus' group, but we are told that soon Judas was the one who carried the money bag (John 12:4-6). And as we are told Judas is the man who betrayed Jesus. From what we see in Judas' character he was not even a good Jew, not believing in the true God.

When Judas learned that Jesus had been condemned to death what did he try to give back?

A:In Matthew's Gospel, Judas repented and returned the money he had been paid, but in Acts of the Apostles, he kept the money and bought a field. His end was much the same in both stories: in Matthew, he then committed suicide, while in Acts he died as the result of terrible and lurid accident.


What do you think Jesus meant by his reply the poor you will always have with you?

the oil poured on Jesus was very, very expensive. It was Judas who said it (correct me if I'm wrong) because he was the treasurer (remember that he betrayed Jesus for money) and he probably didn't actually have much concern for the poor, because in the gospels it states multiple times very clearly that Judas had the devil in Him. But seeing the oil wasted, he was worshipping money and not elevating Jesus to His proper place. Jesus was reminding him (and them) that He would die soon - the woman pouring oil on him was doing good- Jesus is worthy of our sacrifice - and takes pleasure in it. Jesus is, however, in no way opposed to helping the poor. On the contrary, in proverbs it is written that he who ignores the cries of the poor will be ignored himself. worshipping Jesus has to be our first priority. and he is worthy of our sacrifice.


In the bible how much was Judas paid for capturing Jesus?

Did God plan for Judas Iscariot to betray Jesus?

Some early Gnostic Christian sects were of the view that Judas Iscariot was fulfilling a divine plan in betraying Jesus. However, the Catholic-Orthodox branch of early Christianity clearly saw otherwise, as shown in Matthew 27:3-9 and Acts 1:16-19. The condemnation of Judas Iscariot is inconsistent with a belief that he acted in good faith.
