 | | Efforts to connect Clopas, and therefore Alphaeus and his sons, with the family of Jesus, are based on the inference that only three women are named in John 19:25 (cf. |  | | The attempts to relate Alphaeus the father of James with Alphaeus the father of Levi rest on the insufficient manuscript evidence referred to above and late tradition which asserts that both Matthew and James had been tax collectors (Chrysostom). |  | | One of the disciples at Emmaus, Lk 24:18; the name is probably the same as Clopas (jn 19:25), and Alphaeus (Mk 3:18 and parallels) may be used as a Greek equivalent; but any identification of the characters is merely conjectural. |

| | Jesus' father was called Alphaeus by some of the Gospel writers. |
 | | The reason for this hiding of my name from the readers of the New Testament was to prevent the identity of the father who had no faith in Jesus at the crucifixion, but you must have absolute faith in what he tells you is the truth. |  | | Yes, I am Joseph, father of Jesus, and I was called Alphaeus by some writers of the Gospel. |  | | Jesus' father was called Alphaeus by some of the Gospel writers. |

 | | We may not have been hand picked by Jesus to be one of his twelve apostles but in holy Baptism God did hand pick us to live as one of Jesus&; children and as members of his Holy Christian Church and his Communion of Saints. |  | | You will think about James son of Alphaeus and Thaddaeus, the two disciples of Jesus who in many ways are unknown to us but who are known and precious to Jesus. |  | | James son of Alphaeus and Thaddaeus about whom we know very little were not happy at first when little children were brought to Jesus. |

| | Did Jesus have half-brothers and sisters? - at BibleStudy.org |
 | | If Alphaeus was the brother of Mary and the son of Heli with the second Mary as his wife who produced James, Joses, Judas, and Simon, then these would be cousins of Jesus and the word brethren or brothers could be used to identify them as close kinsmen of Jesus. |  | | And if Alphaeus is a place rather than a father's name it might explain why Levi/Matthew and James may come from the same place rather than the same father. |  | | Matthew or Levi was also the son of Alphaeus according to Mark 2:14. |

| | JESUS INVITES SINNERS TO FOLLOW HIM AND EATS WITH THEM |
 | | Levi Alphaeus' son has been in Herod's service, but henceforth he will also be in Jesus' service, at the invitation of the King himself: "Follow me!" says the King. |  | | Levi Alphaeus' son was going to follow Jesus the Messiah no matter what his family said. |  | | Of course in those days Jesus Christ was located in a certain place - at a beach, in a house, on a mount, in the desert, and you could literally follow him to that spot. |

 | | James the disciple of Christ is the son of Alphaeus, which is an alternate rendering of Cleopas, and, because James the brother of John was "James the Greater", James the son of Alphaeus (or Cleopas) was "James the Less", as mentioned in Mark 15:40. |  | | James the son of Alphaeus (Luke 6:15) could not be one of Jesus' brethren of Matthew 13:55, as these brethren did not believe on Him (John 7:5). |  | | BUT if he be James the son of Alphaeus, he CANNOT be the James of Matthew 13:55, one of the brethren of Jesus. |

 | | James, the son of Alphaeus, should not be confused with James, the son of Zebedee, and the brother of John (Matthew 10:2). |  | | James, the son of Alphaeus, should not be confused with James, the brother of the Lord, and the author of the book of James (see Galatians 1:19; Matthew 13:55). |  | | James, the brother of the Lord, is mentioned often on the pages of the New Testament, and we will study this man in Chapter 11 of these notes. |

| | The Brethren of the Lord by J.B. Lightfoot |
 | | Wieseler Ueber die Bruder, etc., According to this writer the James of Galatians 2:9 and of the Acts is the son of Alphaeus, not the Lord's brother, and therefore different from the James of 1:19. |  | | The Twelve Apostles after disputing severally with Caiaphas give an account of their conference to James the chief of Bishops; while James the son of Alphaeus is distinctly mentioned among the Twelve as one of the disputants (i.59). |  | | If an Apostle, he must be identified with the son of Alphaeus, for the son of Zebedee was no longer living: if not an Apostle, then there were three persons bearing this name. |

And he arose and followed him. |  | | And of course these were related to Jesus because Alphaeus was husband to Mary's sister... |

| | Cleophas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The author of the Fourth Gospel's Maria he tou Klopa is perfectly ambiguous, whether "Mary of Klopas" is daughter or wife. |  | | For this reading, it is essential to demonstrate that "Klopas" is an Aramaic form of the Greek name "Alphaeus," as in the Catholic Encyclopedia quote above. |  | | The Roman Catholic Church recognizes a Saint Mary of Cleophas or Clopas; thus the question of whether or not this Mary, mother of a James, is a phantom duplication of Mary the mother of James the brother of Jesus, may not be asked by good Catholics. |

 | | The remaining five are unclear, however (4) James the son of Alphaeus (one of the Twelve), (5) James the less, son of Mary and Clophas, (6) James the brother of Joses/Joseph, (7) James, the father of Judas (one of the Twelve Luke 6:16), and finally (8) James the brother of Jesus. |  | | The first three are generally not in dispute by scholars; (1) Jacob the patriarch for the Hebrew Bible, (2) Jacob the father of Joseph (husband of Mary, Matthew 1:16), and (3) James the son of Zebedee, brother of John the fisherman. |  | | One may question the Judas son of James aspect of the theory and it is accounted for by suggesting Clophas/Alphaeus's name was James. |

 | | However, it should be noted that the most natural understanding of "Judas of James" is "Judas son of James," and that there is therefore no reason to suppose that James the son of Alphaeus has a brother named Jude. |  | | James the Less: James the son of Alphaeus (Alpheus) appears on lists of the Twelve Apostles (usually in the ninth place), but is never mentioned otherwise. |  | | The Epistle of James is addressed to Jewish readers, and James the Just (3) seems to have been particularly concerned with the Jewish Christian community. |

| | James |
 | | That James Alphæus is a brother of the apostles Judas Lebbæus and Simon Zelotes is absolutely excluded by the way in which they are named together, to be distinguished from other brothers who are alluded to in the same way. |  | | Moreover, nowhere in the New Testament is James the brother of the Lord called James Alphaeus, and nowhere is the word brother used in a sense of distant relationship. |  | | They could not therefore have been stepbrothers of Jesus, sons of a former wife of Joseph or of a former husband of Mary, or foster-children of Mary (thus J. Lange); and just as little only cousins of Jesus and identical with the apostles James Alphæus, Judas Lebbaeus, and Simon Zelotes. |
