'''Thirty pieces of silver''' is an expression used to denote selling off someone who is innocent for profit, or a personal betrayal for profit. It traces its origins to the [[Bible]] and [[Judas Iscariot|Judas]]' betrayal of [[Jesus]] for "30 pieces of silver" (Matt 26:15). The original passage is in the [[Old Testament]] (Zec 11:12-13) and the betrayal of Jesus is considered to be the fulfillment of that prophecy.
