Peter, James, and John were the three disciples who went with Jesus to the mountain where he was transfigured.
Yes James was close to jesus as a disciple. he was chosen with Peter and theothers to goup the mountain.
Scripture does not name the mountain. It says Jesus took Peter, James and John up to a high mountain. See Matthew 17:1 and Mark 9:2.
Jesus was closet to Peter, John, and James.
MAR 9:2 ¶ And six days later, Jesus took with Him Peter and James and John, and brought them up to a high mountain by themselves. And He was transfigured before them;Answer/There were three Apostles with Jesus during the transfiguration - Peter and the sons of Zebedee, being John and James.
Peter, John and James sons of Zebedee were the strongest in faith of the Twelve, hence they were chosen by Jesus for the receiving of instruction necessary for the foundation of the Church. Ref: New Testament - 'he suffered no man to follow him but Peter, James, and John...' 'He took Peter, John, and James, and went up the mountain to pray' 'He suffered no man to go in to heal the maiden but Peter, John, and James...' etc; Clement - 'Peter, James, and John, being favoured of the Lord above the rest...', 'the Lord gave to James the Just, and Peter, and John, the gift of knowledge, and they gave it to the other apostles, who gave it to the seventy...'.
Because Peter, James and John had witnessed the transfiguration at the mount and Jesus wanted to keep it a secret.
St. Peter, or Peter the apostle (as he is called in the New Testament) was one of Jesus' 12 disciples, and also one of Jesus' "inner circle" of 3 disciples, Peter, James and John. Jesus took these three with him up the mountain to the transfiguration (Matthew 17) As Jesus predicted, Peter betrayed Jesus by denying him, and was 'reinstated' by Jesus after the resurrection.
