- Judges 1:24
and when the spies saw a man coming out of the city, they said to him, “Please show us how to get into the city, and we will treat you kindly.”
Commentary on Judges 1:241 voice
Show us - the entrance into the city - Taken in whatever light we choose, the conduct of this man was execrable. He was a traitor to his country, and he was accessary to the destruction of the lives and property of his fellow citizens, which he most sinfully betrayed, in order to save his own. According to the rules and laws of war, the children of Judah might avail themselves of such men and their information; but this does not lessen, on the side of this traitor, the turpitude of the action.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
- Judges 1:25
So the man showed them the entrance to the city, and they put the city to the sword but released that man and all his family.
- 1 Samuel 22:9
But Doeg the Edomite, who had stationed himself with Saul’s servants, answered: “I saw the son of Jesse come to Ahimelech son of Ahitub at Nob.
- 1 Samuel 22:10
Ahimelech inquired of the LORD for him and gave him provisions. He also gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.”
Commentary on 1 Samuel 22:101 voice
And he inquired of the Lord for him - This circumstance is not related in history; but it is probably true, as David would most naturally wish to know where to direct his steps in this very important crisis.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
- Matthew 20:18
“Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death
Commentary on Matthew 20:182 voices
He had often told His disciples of His passion, but because it might have slipped out of their recollection by reason of the many things they had heard in the mean while, now when He is going to Jerusalem, and going to take His disciples with Him, He fortifies them against the trial, that they should not be scandalized when the persecution and shame of the Cross should come.
Jerome· Catena Aurea by AquinasPatristic
There is no mention that the disciples either said or did any thing upon hearing of these sufferings that should thus come upon Christ; remembering what the Lord had said to Peter, they were afraid they should have had the like or worse addressed to themselves.
Origen of Alexandria· Catena Aurea by AquinasPatristic
- Matthew 24:10
At that time many will fall away and will betray and hate one another,
- Matthew 26:14–16
Then one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests
Commentary on Matthew 26:14–161 voice
Judas means "confessor." Luke the Evangelist numbers both "Judas the son of James and Judas Iscariot" among the twelve apostles. Since two of Christ's disciples were given this same name and since there can be no meaningless symbol in the Christian mystery, I am convinced that the two Judases represent two distinct types of confessing Christians. The first, symbolized by Judas the son of James, perseveres in remaining faithful to Christ. The second type, however, after once believing and professing faith in Christ, then abandons him out of greed.
Origen of Alexandria· COMMENTARY ON MATTHEW 78Patristic
- Matthew 26:45–50
Then He returned to the disciples and said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Commentary on Matthew 26:45–501 voice
Having concluded His third prayer, and having obtained that the Apostles' terror should be corrected by subsequent penitence, He goes forth undaunted by the prospect of His own Passion to meet His pursuers, and offers Himself voluntarily to be sacrificed. Arise, let us be going; as much as to say, Let them not find you trembling, let us go forth willingly to death, that they may see us confident and rejoicing in suffering; Lo, he that shall betray me draweth near.
Jerome· Catena Aurea by AquinasPatristic
- Mark 14:10
Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.
Commentary on Mark 14:101 voice
(ὁ περὶ τὸν βασιλέα χορὸς ap. Chrys.) But he was one of the twelve in number, not in merit, one in body, not in soul. But he went to the Chief Priests after he went out and Satan entered into him. Every living thing unites with what is like itself. And he promises to betray Him, as his master the devil said before, All this power I will give thee. (Luke 4:6) It goes on, And when they heard it they were glad, and promised to give him money.
Pseudo-Jerome· Catena Aurea by AquinasPatristic
- Mark 14:11
They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.
Commentary on Mark 14:112 voices
He is sold, and cheap was the price—thirty pieces of silver; yet he buys back the world at the mighty cost of his own blood. A sheep, he is led to the slaughter—yet he shepherds Israel and now the whole world as well.
Gregory of Nazianzus· ORATION 29, ON THE SON 20Patristic
(ὁ περὶ τὸν βασιλέα χορὸς ap. Chrys.) But he was one of the twelve in number, not in merit, one in body, not in soul. But he went to the Chief Priests after he went out and Satan entered into him. Every living thing unites with what is like itself. And he promises to betray Him, as his master the devil said before, All this power I will give thee. (Luke 4:6) It goes on, And when they heard it they were glad, and promised to give him money.
Pseudo-Jerome· Catena Aurea by AquinasPatristic
- Luke 22:3–6
Then Satan entered Judas Iscariot, who was one of the Twelve.
- Luke 22:47
While He was still speaking, a crowd arrived, led by the man called Judas, one of the Twelve. He approached Jesus to kiss Him.
Commentary on Luke 22:471 voice
The great significance of divine power, the great discipline of virtue. And the plan of betrayal is revealed, and yet patience is not denied. You have shown, Lord, who would betray, while you reveal hidden things. You have also shown whom he would deliver, while you say: Son of man; because flesh, not divinity, can be understood. However, the fact that he handed him over contradicts even more the ungrateful, that he, although being the Son of God, yet wanted to be the Son of man for our sake.
Ambrose of Milan· EXPOSITION OF THE GOSPEL OF LUKE 10.63-64Patristic
- Luke 22:48
But Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

After Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit and testified, “Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”
