			==Life==

			Very little is known of Papias apart from what can be inferred from his own writings. He is described as "an ancient man who was a hearer of [[New Testament people named John#John of Ephesus\|John]] and a companion of [[Polycarp]]" by Polycarp's disciple [[Irenaeus]] (c. [[180 AD\|180]]).<sup>[4]</sup>

			[[Eusebius]] adds that Papias was Bishop of [[Hierapolis]] around the time of [[Ignatius of Antioch]].<sup>[5]</sup> In this office Papias was presumably succeeded by [[Abercius of Hierapolis]].

			The name ''Papias'' was very common in the region, suggesting that he was probably a native of the area.<sup>[6]</sup>

			==Papias on Judas==
			:Judas did not die by hanging, but he survived after being taken down, before he had choked to death. The Acts of the Apostles signifies this as well: “falling headfirst he burst forth in the middle, and his intestines spilled out.” And Papias, the disciple of John, relates this very clearly in the fourth book of his Exposition of the Sayings of the Lord:

			::“But Judas went about in this world as a great model of impiety. He became so bloated in the flesh that he could not pass through a place that was easily wide enough for a wagon – not even his swollen head could fit. They say that his eyelids swelled to such an extent that he could not see the light at all; and a doctor could not see his eyes even with an optical device, so deeply sunken they were in the surrounding flesh. And his genitals became more disgusting and larger than anyone’s; simply by relieving himself, to his wanton shame, he emitted pus and worms that flowed through his entire body.

			::And they say that after he suffered numerous torments and punishments, he died on his own land, and that land has been, until now, desolate and uninhabited because of the stench. Indeed, even to this day no one can pass by the place without holding their nose. This was how great an outpouring he made from his flesh on the ground.” [Apollinaris of Laodicea, drawn from a number of sources]
