So we know of James (son of Alphaeus) who is known by Just and Lesser, and he’s known to be the brother of Jude (Acts 1:13), but this can’t be the apostle Jude (Luke 6:16).
One is the “Son of James”, and the other is “Brother of James”.
1, Would this mean that the Epistle of Jude wasn’t written by an apostle?

- In Eusebius’ Church history 3:11, Symeon son of Clopas (Alphaeus) is said to be a “Cousin”, rather than a “Brother” to Jesus, (James was supposedly son of Alphaeus) Eusebius also said James was: “…known as a son of Joseph” (ibid. 2:1) and Origen said it (Com. Math. 17), would this mean that James the Just isn’t Alphaeus’ son?
- If James the Just isn’t Alphaeus’ (Clopas) son, then would we have 3 James’ (Greater, Lesser, Just)???
