Bible Comments

And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear: so they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver. 13 And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord.

Nothing can be clearer, than that this prophecy referred to the person of Christ. See Matthew 27:9. It is worthy the Reader's remark, that the price a Jewish servant paid, in the case of an ox goring him, or her, was the same. Exodus 21:32.
