He may have been remorseful no worries, but even before Jesus was put to death, Judas was only sorry that he had betrayed Jesus, and he tried to return the money, hoping they might let Jesus go because Jesus was innocent of all charges against Him. The chief priests and Elders said, "What is that to us?" Matt. 27:4). They didn't care, they finally had Jesus who had escaped many times before ("Therefore they sought ""AGAIN"" to take him: but He escaped out of their hand," John 10:39), and thats all they wanted! When Judas saw that Jesus was caught and condemned to death, INSTEAD OF ESCAPING AS HE HAD DONE SO MANY TIMES BEFORE Judas was sorry and he repented himself, (Matt. 27:3), that is, he only regretted what he had done. He never went out and wept in repentance, or even just simply repented, as Peter did, when he realized what he had done in denying Jesus three times as Jesus had prophesised???? Judas, instead of repenting, brooded over his sin, he gave in to Satans temptation and committed suicide. He did commit suicide and to commit suice is to refuse Jesus Christ's death as repayement for sin. You see, Judas believed Satan, he assumed his sin was too great and just unforgivable, but not so!!!! God forgives all sin repented of in Jesus Holy Name because Jesus paid the penalty for us. The penalty for sin is death thats for sure, but Jesus paid the penalty. He does not require us to pay it. All Judas had to do is repent which he did not do, he killed himself instead anmd thats copping out even in these end times. Only a coward goes down that road.
There are two different words that are translated from the Greek to English "Repent." One of them is strictly passive, indicating no action whatsoever on the part of the "Penitent" and it is a word that should have been more correctly translated "remorse." The other is active and reflects acts of a contrite and penitent heart.
Judas was sorry for his action, but did not act upon his sorrow. He rather acted upon self destruction, which is not a reflection of repentence, but further rebellion agaisnt the God who made him.
