☀️ 1 - When morning came, all the chief priests and leaders of the people took counsel together, against Jesus, to have him put to death. 2 And they bound him and led him away to Pilate the governor.
3 Then when Judas, his betrayer, saw that Jesus was condemned, he changed his mind and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief leaders, 4 saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood!” They said, “What is that to us?” 5 And throwing down the pieces of silver into the temple, Judas departed, and went out and hung himself.
6 The chief priests said, “It’s not lawful to put the silver into the treasury, since it’s blood money.” 7 So they talked it over and with it bought the potter's field as a burial place for strangers. {A field of a potter’s throwaway broken pottery pieces. Metaphor - all us broken vessels/pottery, bought with 30 pieces of silver.} 8 And so that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day. 9 Then was fulfilled what was spoken [long ago] by the prophet Jeremiah - “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of he, on whom a price had been set by some of the sons of Israel, 10 and they gave it for the potter's field, as the LORD directed.” [“God is savior..” 1Tim.4:10.]
