At first I thought it was a typo, so I started checking other prints....nope. Matthew specifically, and it was specifically interpreted TO THE LETTER...
J.U.D.A.S. Just one letter difference changes the meaning...
JUDAH means "Praise"
JUDAS means "Traitor"
This was God Breathed on purpose, for Matthew to be written and interpreted that way. I'm not sure if Matthew was even aware of it or it's significance. It could have only came from God. Matthew was just trying to establish the geneology.
