This paper aims to search for the elements of excuse for Judas of Iscariot, who has been blamed for betraying his master, as a central motif of "Ivy Day in the Committee Room" using materials from the Bible and other sources. The procedure shined a light on the need for new positions of the religious leaders in Ireland, who have been treated similarly due to the betrayal of their political leader. The main characters in the story are pursuing only the economic influence, which they hope to fill their empty pockets instead of the grand purpose of freedom and independence of Ireland. In every aspect, they do not care even though the money comes from the British Empire, who have colonized their country. The negative evaluation of Judas Iscariot is based on the resentment of the other disciples who were influenced by the death of their master. The betrayal of the Irish religious leaders, who blamed Parnel emphasizing the purity of a political leader, has been degraded as a target of blame because it had caused the downfall of the leader. However, as many well-documented evidences claim that there are some plausible, namely personal, political and religious reasons for Judas of Iscariot to sell his master, Jesus, the conversations of the people in this story shows some real reasons for religious and political people of Ireland to rebuke and betray their substantial leader. In brief, the downfall of a promising Irish political leader and subsequent frustration of his home country do not seem to be caused by a mere betrayal of a specific group of people who wish to achieve political and economic benefit, but can be interpreted as a manifestation of their righteous desire for a leader not to lose his spiritual and physical purity.
