# Judas Iscariot
|
||
|
||
## Facts:
|
||
|
||
Judas Iscariot was one of Jesus’ apostles. He was the one who betrayed Jesus to the Jewish leaders.
|
||
|
||
* The name “Iscariot” may mean “from Kerioth,” perhaps indicating that Judas grew up in that city.
|
||
* Judas Iscariot managed the apostles’ money and regularly stole some of it to use for himself.
|
||
* Judas betrayed Jesus by telling the religious leaders where Jesus was so they could arrest him.
|
||
* After the religious leaders condemned Jesus to die, Judas regretted that he had betrayed Jesus, so he gave the betrayal money back to the Jewish leaders and then killed himself.
|
||
* One of the other apostles of Jesus was Judas son of James. He was not the same person as Judas Iscariot.
|
||
* One of Jesus’ brothers was named Judas. He was later known as “Jude.” He was not the same person as Judas Iscariot.
