“And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.”
And throwing down the pieces of silver into the temple, he departed, and he went and hanged himself. Judas' end: throwing the silver into the temple and hanging himself. The silver thrown into the temple is the rejection of the blood money that the chief priests will refuse to put into the treasury (verse 6). Acts 1:18 describes a different end for Judas — falling headlong and bursting open — which may represent a subsequent event after the hanging.
