Satan's Strategy
Commentators explain that "Satan entered into Judas" doesn't necessarily mean demonic possession. Rather, Satan powerfully influenced Judas by exploiting his existing sinful desires, like greed. Scholars note that Judas "opened the door" to this influence, highlighting that while temptation is real, we retain moral responsibility for our choices.
