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.
Jack uses the "beastie" as a way to evoke fear into the group. When one is in fear, they often fall in a oppressed state and turn to who is they believe can confront the problem the best. In this case, Jack kept on insisting that the beast was real and therefore the littluns followed him because he did not seem to be scared of it.
