Did many apostles complain, or was it primarily Judas? ( Matthew 26: 6-13)

8 But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
Verse says deciples that would be more than one.
It seems to clearly infer that it was a reason for the betrayel by Judas.

It says apostles - I would think it was apostles.
There is no mention in any of the passages that Judas complained. In fact in Luke it doesn't even mention the apostles complaining. It is the Pharisee cmplaining, and he doesn't complain about the money but about Jesus being touched by a woman who is a sinner.
I am amazed at how many responses you get from people who do not even check the passages before they respond but speak with such authority.

Judas was a scapegoat for the disciples and he still serves that purpose today. Give him a break. Read the Gospel of Judas to get a new slant on his betrayal and life purpose.

The accounts all show Judas as the complainer. He did this because he was holding the money box, which he had his fingers in. The money, or some portion of it, would have gone into his pocket, not to take care of the poor as he protested.

Hahahaha, Well, I have to tell ya, that particular issue is waaaaaaaaaay down the bottom of my "to- worry-about" list. Wait a minute, what am I saying? It's not on the list at all. I have it on good authority that it all allegedly happened a couple of thousand years or so ago, and the people involved are all dead now. This is, let me think... 2007, and there are a few rather important and pressing life issues that are occupying my attention and concern right now. One of them seems to be that I'm fresh out of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. But that's for cooking with, and the supermarket is right down the road, so no problems. It means I just have to go out and buy some.

It was Judas, who carried the purse, and was a thief, who complained.

That is the only one that I remember reading about. It has been said he wanted the money for himself he was the treasury don't know if that is true or not though. God bless

if you read closely i think you will find it was primarily Judas Iscariot.

Hello my friend, I do believe that it was just Judas, but please forgive me if I am wrong.
