"Scum disciple: not Judas" by Stephen M. Miller on Jul 25, 2015 06:00 am
Pharisees weren’t talking about Judas when they asked Jesus’ disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with such scum?” (Matthew 9:10-11 NLT). They were talking about Matthew, the tax collector. Jews considered them collaborators with Rome since taxmen paid Rome for the right to collect taxes. Strange and Mysterious Stuff in the Bible, p.176.
