The Twelve
The Betrayer, Son of Perdition
Apostles · 2 verses
The treasurer who became a thief, Judas betrayed Christ for thirty pieces of silver—the price of a slave. His suicide in despair contrasts with Peter's repentance. Scripture calls him 'son of perdition,' the only one of the Twelve ultimately lost.
