  Summary

  And lo, Judas, who was called the betrayer, sold the Son of Man for silver, yet the Lord, full of mercy, let him walk beside Him.
  Though Judas wept bitterly and begged to be cast away, the Lamb of God did not withhold His love, but forgave him with a holy sorrow.
  And the kiss, born of betrayal and burdened with love, remained upon the cheek of Christ, a mark of both sin and grace.
  ~⚱~
  Judas betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver, fully aware of the weight of his actions. Yet, what tormented him most was not just the betrayal itself, but the unbearable grace of Jesus' forgiveness—a love so deep, it defied judgment. The kiss he gave to Jesus became a lasting symbol, not only of betrayal, but of the complex, painful bond between guilt, love, and mercy.
