The Morning was Come

The morning was come, the chief priests were done
Having, amongst themselves already counseled
Jesus was to be decreed- but a blasphemous person
At last... as they'd long wished him condemned

Judas, bitterly guilty of betrayal
Came to repent and give the money back
But, too late, their judgment was final
They mocked his offer, and asked, "What is that?"

Judas, wishing he'd never been born, went to tree... alone,
Tied a rope, and hung, as his own form of sentencing
While the silver coins remained unlawful to have or even own
For, knowing this, the high priests kept them from the treasury

Quickly the money was spent on a potter's field
To bury the homeless and poor strangers therein
And is known as a place of blood... to this day... still
Appointed for sorrow...a land fully cursed and barren

thoughts from:
Matthew 27:10

Jesus had said: The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It had been good for that man if he had not been born...Matt 26:24
The coins fulfilled prophecy...Zech 11:13

Alma 34:11
Now there is not any man that can sacrifice his own blood which will atone for the sins of another. Now, if a man murdereth, behold will our law, which is just, take the life of his brother? I say unto you, Nay.
12But the law requireth the life of him who hath murdered; therefore there can be nothing which is short of an infinite atonement which will suffice for the sins of the world....this is a great chapter to read...
