The answer is: A band of men and officers

Matthew 26:14-16 - Judas Iscariot's betrayal, marked by receiving a band of men and officers from the religious leaders, highlights the tension between secular power and spiritual authority. Interestingly, the "band" can also refer to Roman soldiers, illustrating how political machinations influenced Jesus' arrest, echoing earlier themes of betrayal seen in Joseph's story (Genesis 37).
