Judas Iscariot (Biblical Greek: Ἰούδας Ἰσκαριώτης; died c. 30/33 CE), commonly referred to simply as Judas, was one of Jesus of Nazareth's Twelve Apostles who betrayed him to be crucified shortly after the Last Supper, an act that plagued his conscience and drove him to suicide. Judas' name would eventually become synonymous with betrayal itself.[1]
Legacy[edit | edit source]
Circa 1560, the Spanish Renaissance painter Juan de Joanes created a oil on panel depiction of the Last Supper where Judas was pictured on the front right, holding a money pouch to signify his betrayal.[2]
In 1710, St. Mary Matfelon's rector Richard Welton commissioned an altarpiece by James Fellowes depicting the Last Supper, and had White Kennett, the Dean of Peterborough and a personal enemy, drawn as Judas in an act of passive aggression.[3]
