Two of Jesus' apostles were named Simon; to one He gave the name Peter (Mark 3:16), and the other was known as "Simon called Zelotes" (Luke 6:15, KJV), or "Simon the Zealot."

∙ 11y agoMark's Gospel refers to a disciple called Simon the Cananaean, which is ambiguous, possibly meaning he was a Canaanite (preferred by the King James Bible), that he was from the village of Cana or that he was a former Zealot.
In copying from Mark, Matthew's Gospel resolves this as 'Canaanite', while Luke's Gospel says 'Simon the Zealot'.
