act the last appeal to Judas’ better feeling. The very mark Jesus chooses to single him out is one which on ordinary occasions was a mark of distinctive favour". Verse 29 For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus had said to him, “Buy those things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.John's Gospel is the only one which observes that Judas was responsible for the disciples' "common fund" or "money box", both here in and again here.
