The End Of Evil

Matthew 27:1-5

Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people made their plans how to have Jesus executed. So they bound him, led him away and handed him over to Pilate the governor. When Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was seized with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders. 'I have sinned, he said, for I have betrayed innocent blood.' 'What is that to us?' they replied. 'That's your responsibility.' So Judas threw the money into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself. (NIVUK)

From the Upper Room Passover gathering, two people would die the next day. One was Jesus: He had been condemned to death by the religious court, but they could not carry out the sentence. Under Roman law, only the Governor could authorise execution by crucifixion. So, they sent Jesus to Pilate, even though they did not have a charge that warranted the death sentence (John 18:31). The other person to die was Judas Iscariot, the betrayer.
