Matthew 27:3 in context

The verses around it, from Matthew 27.

1 When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.

2 They bound Him, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

3 When Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was filled with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders.

4 “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What is that to us?” they replied. “You bear the responsibility.”

5 So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.

6 The chief priests picked up the pieces of silver and said, “It is unlawful to put this into the treasury, since it is blood money.”

7 After conferring together, they used the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.
