(Hebrew: יהודה איש קריות [Yehuda Ish Kerayot], which could have meant ‘Yehuda’ from Kerayot or possibly Kerioth, but its meaning is unsure/debatable) (died c. 30–33 AD)

[“Judas Iscariot” was, according to the ‘New Testament’, one of the twelve original disciples of Jesus Christ, and son of Simon Iscariot (only mentioned in John 6:71 and John 13:26)]
.
(he is known for the kiss and betrayal of Jesus to the ‘Sanhedrin’ for thirty silver coins)
(his name is often used synonymously with betrayal or ‘treason’)
(though there are varied accounts of his death, the traditional version sees him as having hanged himself following the betrayal, as recorded in the ‘Gospel of Matthew’)
(his place among the Twelve Apostles was later filled by ‘Matthias’)
(despite his notorious role in the Gospel narratives, ‘Judas’ remains a controversial figure in Christian history)
(Judas’ betrayal, for instance, is seen as setting in motion the events that led to Jesus’ Crucifixion and Resurrection, which, according to traditional Christian theology, brought salvation to mankind)
(‘gnostic texts’ – rejected by the mainstream Church as ‘heretical’ – praise ‘Judas’ for his role in triggering humanity’s salvation, and view ‘Judas’ as the best of the apostles)
