Money cast to the Potter


Prophecy made in 520-518 BC :  Zechariah 11
13 Then the LORD said to me, “Throw it to the potter, that magnificent price at which I was valued by them.” So I took the thirty shekels of silver and threw them to the potter in the house of the LORD.
Fulfillment in 33 AD:  Matthew 27
5 And he threw the pieces of silver into the sanctuary and departed; and he went away and hanged himself.
6 And the chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, “It is not lawful to put them into the temple treasury, since it is the price of blood.”
7 And they counseled together and with the money bought the Potter’s Field as a burial place for strangers.
