ACC ~ John 12 v5

UNDER THE GUISE OF RELIGION

GAUDENTIUS OF BRESCIA Judas valued cheating above everything else—except his hatred of the Savior. Nevertheless, under the pretext of piety, he brings out these deceitful words. … Impious beyond measure and filled with a savage disposition, influenced by his fraudulent greed, it is evident that he expresses this particular charge, attempting to hide it under the guise of religion. SERMON 13. [1]

[1] PL 20:935-36.

JUDAS DEVALUES FORGIVENESS AND CHRIST’S PASSION

AMBROSE O traitor Judas, you value the ointment of his passion at three hundred pence, and you sell his passion at thirty pence. Rich in valuing, cheap in wickedness! ON THE HOLY SPIRIT 3.17.128. [1]
