Early in the morning, all the chief priests and Jewish leaders made the decision to kill Jesus.
And they bound Him and led Him away and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.
When the traitor Judas saw that Jesus had been sentenced to death, he was sorry. Then he returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and Jewish leaders.
He said, "I have sinned betraying innocent people, until he was sentenced to death!" But they replied, "we dont care, That's your own business!
Then Yudas threw down the pieces of silver into the temple and went away and hanged himself.
The chief priests picked up the money and said, "This money is blood money. According to religious law, this money should not be put in place an offering in the Temple."
Then after they agreed, they use the money to buy land, called the potter's field. The land was used for the burial of strangers.
That is why to this day was called "Land of Blood".
Then were fulfilled the words spoken by Jeremiah the prophet when he said, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him on Whom a price had been set by some of the sons of Israel, And the money they use to buy the potter's field, as the Lord commanded me."
