Mat 26:16 | MHM | STEP | v. 16 : From then on, Judas looked for a good chance to betray Jesus (Matthew 26:16 ). He was always thinking about how to do it. It is very wrong to look for chances to do evil. After making the deal, Judas still had time to change his mind, but he did not. Now, he felt he had to keep his promise to the priests, even if it meant betraying his Master, just as Herod kept his oath and had John the Baptist killed.
