27:6-10 Where in scripture is this prophecy?

Although this prophecy is ascribed here to Jeremiah, it was actually prophesied by Zechariah (cp Zech 11:12-13).

The price on Jesus’ head set by the chief priests for Judas to betray Him was the same pittance Zechariah prophesied – thirty pieces of silver, which was used to buy the Potter’s Field as a burial ground for Gentiles (cpActs 1:16-19).

It is pointless speculating why Zechariah’s prophecy was attributed to Jeremiah – there is nothing in scripture to indicate why.
