It Was Night - John 13:30

John 13:30 ESV 

So, after receiving the morsel of bread, he immediately went out. And it was night.

Judas received a bite of bread from the bread of life. Jesus offers the bread of heaven to all, but Judas did not want more and immediately left. Many do not have a taste for the divine or an interest in God. 

The last words are the most somber and sad part of this verse. Judas left the light of the world to return to the darkness from which he came. 

I'm sure he had his reasons and had an answer for why he rejected the Lord. He and many others will have the opportunity to stand before Christ and give their account of why they loved the darkness more than the light.
