|
|
|
|
## Facts: ##
|
|
|
|
Judas, son of James, was one of Jesus' twelve apostles. Note that this was not the same man as Judas Iscariot.
|
|
|
|
* Often in the Bible, men with the same name are distinguished by mentioning whose son they were. Here, Judas is identified as the "son of James."
|
|
* Another man named Judas was Jesus' brother. He was also known as "Jude."
|
|
* The New Testament book called "Jude" was probably written by Jesus' brother Judas, since he identifies himself as the "brother of James." James was another brother of Jesus.
|
|
* It is also possible that the book of Jude was written by Jesus' disciple, Judas, the son of James.
