It would be about a months wage for a laborer - but judas was no laborer. Judas was a theif. Crime has a long history of not paying. Thematically, it echoes the frustrations voiced all throughout the ot, that thievery was central to the plight of gods nation, and gods anger. It's pretty well constructed, imo. The pettiness and tragedy of it is supposed to stick out, and it does.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
