The Betrayal of Judas was an episode in the Passion of Jesus, according to the Gospels of Mark (14:10-11), Matthew (26:14-16), and Luke (22:3-6).

Overview

All three gospels agree that it was Judas, one of the Twelve, who betrayed Jesus for money. Mark, Matthew and John connect Judas' decision with an argument he had with Jesus about the Anointing at Bethany. He there complained about the waste on money that could be rather given to "the poor." Luke omits any reference to the episode, generically blaming "Satan" for what happened.

Judas reached a deal with the "chief priests," that is, Caiaphas and Annas, the leaders of the House of Annas, the ruling priestly family.

Mark and Luke say that in exchange Judas received some money, which is specified in "thirty pieces of silver" in Matthew.
