Meaning:James, (a) the Small, son of Alphaeus, and one of the Twelve, (b) half-brother of Jesus, (c) father (?) of Jude, (d) son of Zebedee, and brother of John, one of the Twelve, killed A.D. 44. Word Origin:Derived from the Hebrew name יַעֲקֹב (Ya'akov) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries:H3290 יַעֲקֹב (Ya'akov) Usage:The name Iakóbos is used in the New Testament to refer to several individuals, most notably James the son of Zebedee, James the son of Alphaeus, and James the brother of Jesus. It is a common name in the Jewish tradition, reflecting the patriarch Jacob, whose name was later changed to Israel. Cultural and Historical Background:In the Jewish tradition, names held significant meaning and were often reflective of one's heritage or character. The name Jacob, from which Iakóbos is derived, means "supplanter" or "holder of the heel," referencing the biblical account of Jacob and Esau. In the New Testament context, James is a prominent figure in the early Christian church. James the son of Zebedee was one of the twelve apostles and part of Jesus' inner circle, while James the brother of Jesus became a leader in the Jerusalem church.
