The gospels do not make it clear exactly who gave Judas the thirty pieces of silver to betray Jesus.
The closest we get is:-
Then went one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, to the chief priests, and said to them: What will you give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they weighed unto him thirty pieces of silver. (Matthew 26:14-5)
Which implies that it was the priests of the temple collectively that gave Judas this money.
