Judas Iscariot

Judas Iscariot was one of the twelve original disciples of Jesus Christ, known for betraying Jesus to authorities for thirty pieces of silver. His act of betrayal led to Jesus' arrest and eventual crucifixion. Often viewed as a symbol of treachery and moral failure, Judas's actions highlight themes of loyalty and deception within the Christian narrative. Despite his significance in the story, the reasons behind his betrayal remain a subject of interpretation and debate among scholars and religious traditions.
