It wasn't part of prophecy...And he didn't kill himself...

Then you believe in polytheism...

No...All will confess that he is lord...G-d is a different concept...

Judas couldn't repent after taking his life , therefore his ( Sin Of Self Murder Still Stands ) unto today. Judas is looking up to earth all the way from Hell as we communication about him on this thread.
Repentance need not be made to anybody...Repentance is just changing your mind about something...Judas changed his mind...Gave back the money...So, still, explain to me how he could have purchased that field with that very same money?...You know, the one he allegedly killed himself on?...And he's not in hell...He's in the grave awaiting resurrection...

Judas didn't buy the potter's field, the Sanhedrin's associates did.
The accounts say he committed suicide. It's not for us to speculate
on the ultimate destination of his soul.

You are aware enough to know that repentances mean to say that you are sorry for your Sins and change
your mind about your Lifestyle , but you failed not confessing this all to GOD.

I know where Judas is at this moment ( Hell ) because you can't Kill Yourself ( Suicide ) and repent for that Sin after your Death.

Act 1:16 `Men, brethren, it behoved this Writing that it be fulfilled that beforehand the Holy Spirit spake through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus,
Act 1:17 because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration,
Act 1:18 this one, indeed, then, purchased a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed forth,
Act 1:19 and it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem, insomuch that that place is called, in their proper dialect, Aceldama, that is, field of blood,

How in the world did he do this when he had given the money back after repenting, hmmmm???...


The description of Judas’ death is not the only problem skeptics have with Acts 1:18. Since Matthew 27:5-6 says the chief priests used the betrayal money that Judas threw on the temple floor to purchase the potter’s field, critics contend that a contradiction exists because Acts 1:18 indicates that Judas purchased the field with the blood money. Obviously, Judas could not have purchased the field because he gave the 30 pieces of silver back to the priests before hanging himself. Thus, to say that Judas bought the potter’s field is incorrect…right? Wrong!

Repentance in Judaism known as teshuva (Hebrew: תשובה‎, literally "return"), is the way of atoning for sin in Judaism.
According to Gates of Repentance, a standard work of Jewish ethics written by Rabbenu Yonah of Gerona, if someone commits a sin, a forbidden act, he can be forgiven for that sin if he performs teshuva, which includes:

regretting/acknowledging the sin;

forsaking the sin (see below);

worrying about the future consequences of the sin;

acting and speaking with humility;

acting in a way opposite to that of the sin (for example, for the sin of lying, one should speak the truth);

understanding the magnitude of the sin;

refraining from lesser sins for the purpose of safeguarding oneself against committing greater sins;
confessing the sin (see below);

praying for atonement;

correcting the sin however possible (for example, if one stole an object, the stolen item must be returned or if one slanders another, the slanderer must ask the injured party for forgiveness);

pursuing works of chesed and truth;

remembering the sin for the rest of one's life; (which Christians insist that you forget about and move on.)

refraining from committing the same sin if the opportunity presents itself again;

teaching others not to sin.

Guides to the process of repentance in Judaism can be found through the rabbinical literature, see especially Maimonides' Rules of Repentance in the Mishneh Torah.


Obviously you are not aware of the meaning of true repentance...

Then Yeshua lied...

However, he did not kill himself...You're taking Hebraic Idioms literally....

It does not say he committed suicide...
