There are several men named James who were followers of Jesus. James, son of Zebedee and brother of John; James, son of Alphaeus; James the younger; James, father of Judas (not Iscariot); and James, Jesus' brother. Disciples were learners or pupils while apostles were sent on behalf of another. Apostle is the title Jesus gave to His closest circle of friends, the twelve (Luke 6:13). In the Synoptic Gospels, James, son of Zebedee is mentioned 3rd in Matthew 10:2 with Peter and Andrew being first and second. Mark 1:19 also mentions Peter (Simon) and Andrew, then James, son of Zebedee. Luke 6:14 also mentions Simon Peter, Andrew, and then James. Simon Peter and his brother Andrew were chosen before James making the answer to the question 2.
