u/Christ_Is_King_2166

I'm a Christian student at a Bible college writing a paper about the supposed contradiction of Judas' death in the Bible. The contradiction comes from the fact that in the book of Matthew it states that he hung himself, but in the book of Acts it states that he fell to the ground and burst open. I personally feel like this is easily explained with the idea that he hung himself and then at some point, be it by eventual decapitation or someone finally taking him down, he fell to the ground and because of his body being partially decomposed when he hit the ground he burst. I'm posting here because I just wanted to get an outside view of this in order to better take an objective, unbiased approach to answering this question. Thank you all for your time and God bless
