what does the name judas mean in greek
Judas Iscariot The name Judas (Ὶούδας) is a Greek rendering of the Hebrew name Judah (יהודה, Yehûdâh, Hebrew for "God is praised"), which was an extremely common name for Jewish men during the first century AD, due to the renowned hero Judas Maccabeus.[15][7] Consequently, numerous other figures with this name are mentioned throughout the New Testament.[12][15][7] In the Gospel of Mark 3:13-19, the earliest of all the gospels, which was written in the mid 60s or early 70s AD, Judas Iscariot is the only apostle named Judas.[7] Matthew 10:2-4 follows this portrayal.[7] The Gospel of Luke 6:12-19, however, replaces the apostle whom Mark and Matthew call "Thaddeus" with "Judas son of James".[7] Peter Stanford suggests that this renaming may represent an effort by the author of the Gospel of Luke to create a "good Judas" in contrast to the betrayer Judas Iscariot.[7]
Son of perdition The New International Version translates the phrase as "the one doomed to destruction." D. A. Carson suggests that this verse refers both to Judas' character and to his destiny.[1]
