Detailed explanation-1: -Their treason is inarguable, as Brutus and Cassius directly participated in Caesar’s murder, and Judas handed Jesus over to the authorities who despised Jesus. They all betrayed the leaders of their time, one being secular, the other being spiritual.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Judas that Dante writes about in the Inferno is Judas Iscariot, the man who betrayed Jesus by giving him over to people who would crucify him.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cassius manipulated Brutus into thinking that Caesar was trying to destroy Rome and that the citizens wanted him dead. Cassius, Brutus, and the other senators decided to assassinate Caesar at the senate where his bodyguards would have to wait outside. There, they all stabbed him.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cassius betrays Brutus’ trust in him by falsifying letters to prompt Brutus to join the conspiracy to kill Caesar. Later, Cassius (one of the Roman senators) again betrays Caesar’s friend Brutus by failing to support his army in the battle against Antony.
