his body shall not remain all night on the tree, but you shall surely bury him the same day; for he who is hanged is accursed of God; that you don’t defile your land which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance.His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

Where you find this verse
That reaches back to this verse
In contrast to (this verse)Matthew 27:5
The law calls the one hanged on a tree accursed, and the apostles apply that text to the cross of Jesus, never to Judas.
“He threw down the pieces of silver in the sanctuary, and departed. He went away and hanged himself.And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.”
