Zebedee was a wealthy man who had hired servants- And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him. Mark 1:20


Sons of Zebedee were Partners with Peter - And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. Luke 5:10


Were named Sons of Thunder - And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder: Mark 3:17

James was the first Apostle to be martyred - Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. Acts 12:1,2

There are no recorded words spoken by James
