The Bible says that Matthew replaced Judas by drawing of lot. But other narration in the Bible suggests that Judas is still alive after the ressurection; 1 Corinthian 15 [4] And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

[5] And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: Matthew was still not chosen at this time, and yet Paul mentions "then of the twelve." See Discussion for further comment. Acts 1: 26 says this: "And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles." Thus quite clearly Matthias was the replacement for Judas who was already dead before Jesus as he hanged himself in despair as recorded.
