In Lord of the Flies, Jack represents the deterioration of civilization and secedes to the darker side as he stops following the rules and wants to hunt more. Judas is one of Jesus' 12 disciples, and sells his loyalty to Jesus for silver. Both turn against the goodness of mankind because of their greed and lust for what the other "side" offers them.
