Re: "James the Just": What is the origin of the phrase?

Furthermore, it is crucial to note that the events of Acts 15 occurred after the death of James, the son of Zebedee (the brother of John), as detailed in Acts 12:2. The death of James son of Zebedee is not detailed in Acts 12.2, as you assert. Recounting that Acts 12.2 records the death of James so...

Re: Matthean posteriority: Mark's "Mary mother of Joses" vs "Mary mother of the James"

For the record, what precise wording in Acts 12:2 describes James Zebedee's early death for you, gryan? In Luke-Acts, "James and John" are identified as "the sons of Zebedee" only once (Lk 5:17). In the multiple subsequent mentions of "brothers" named "James"...
