Mateus 27:8

8 Por isso ele se chama campo de Sangue até o dia de hoje.

Mateus 27:8 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 27:8

Wherefore that field was called
Not by the priests and elders, but by the common people, who knew by what money it was purchased,

the field of blood;
or "Aceldama", which so signifies, as in ( Acts 1:19 ) , not called the field of the priests, the purchasers; nor the field of the strangers, for whom it was bought; but the field of blood, being purchased with that money, for which innocent blood was betrayed; and this name it bore

unto this day;
in which Matthew wrote his Gospel, about eight years after, as is thought. Jerom ^F24 says, that in his time this field was shown on the south side of Mount Sion.

Mateus 27:8 In-Context

6 Os chefes dos sacerdotes ajuntaram as moedas e disseram: “É contra a lei colocar este dinheiro no tesouro, visto que é preço de sangue”.

7 Então decidiram usar aquele dinheiro para comprar o campo do Oleiro, para cemitério de estrangeiros.

8 Por isso ele se chama campo de Sangue até o dia de hoje.

9 Então se cumpriu o que fora dito pelo profeta Jeremias: “Tomaram as trinta moedas de prata, preço em que foi avaliado pelo povo de Israel,

10 e as usaram para comprar o campo do Oleiro, como o Senhor me havia ordenado”.
