Judas surnamed the Galilaean, a man who at the time of the census under Quirinus (better Quirinius), excited a revolt in Galilee: Acts 5:37 (Josephus, Antiquities 18, 1, 1, where he is called Γαυλανιτης because he came from the city Gamala, near the Lake of Galilee in lower Gaulanitis; but he is called also Γαλιλαῖος by Josephus, Antiquities 18, 1, 6; 20, 5, 2; b. j. 2, 8, 1).
5. (Judas) a certain Jew of Damascus: Acts 9:11.
6. Judas surnamed Ἰσκαριώτης (which see), of Carioth (from the city of Kerioth, Joshua 15:25; Jeremiah 31:41 (Jer. 48:41); Amos 2:2; (but see BB.
