  • Well no, that’s what I was saying.

    In Matthew 27:3–7 he is filled with remorse, tries to give the silver back, the priests don’t want it, he throws it on the ground and goes and hangs himself, and the priests buy a potters field with it.

    But in Acts 1:18 it merely says he buys used the money to buys a field, falls in it, and “burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.”

    It’s a famous discrepancy among biblical scholars, and the general belief is that it is a discrepancy. Some try to justify it figuratively, but the better explanation is it’s all nonsense.
