Holy Apostle Jude, the Brother of the Lord (80) He was one of the Twelve and a kinsman of the Lord according to the flesh (see Luke 6:16, Acts 1:13; According to holy Tradition, Joseph the Carpenter, before he was widowed, had four sons by his wife Salome: James, Hosea, Simon and Jude). As an Apostle, St Jude preached in Mesopotamia, Arabia and Syria, and met a Martyr's end in Beirut. He is the author of the New Testament Epistle that bears his name. His name ("Judas" in Greek, from "Judah" in Hebrew) means "praise". source: http://www.abbamoses.com | |
