Matthew 26:6-16
1. What motivated Judas?
Money motivated Judas to betray Jesus.
When Mary took expensive perfume to pour on Jesus' feet, Judas, who was later to betray him, objected, "Why wasn't this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year's wages."
He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it.
John 12:1-16
2. Contrast the attitudes of the woman and Judas to wealth.
The woman gave up her wealth and property to serve the Lord while Judas betrayed the Lord so as to gain wealth.
Jesus told about Mary, "I tell you the truth, wherever this gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her."
