Jesus had two disciples called Judas. One was Judas Iscariot, the other was just called Judas. Judas Iscariot is not known as Jesus brother, actually, he was the follower of Jesus that betrayed him to the Pharisees.
Judas Iscariot was one of the original disciples of Jesus Christ, and the one who betrayed Him. He was not a blood brother of Jesus.
He betrayed Jesus Christ.
Two. Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus and Judas identified as the 'brother of James' and also as Thaddeus.
There were three men named Judas whose lives including Jesus, two of them were Apostles. One was also known as Thaddeus and the other was Judas Iscariot. The third was Jesus' half brother. The professions of the first two are not mentioned in the Bible, but it seems likely that Jesus' brother was also a carpenter.
There is no explicit reference in the New Testament stating that Didymus Judas Thomas is Jesus' twin brother. The belief that Thomas is Jesus' twin is based on extra-biblical sources and early Christian traditions.
Thomas is not a proper name, but means "twin" in Aramaic, as does "Didymus" in Greek. The Gospel of Thomas explains that his given name was "Judas (not Iscariot)".The Acts of Thomas, probably written at the beginning of the third century, says that Judas Thomas was the twin brother of Jesus and is sometimes mistaken for Jesus, even deceiving the Devil. However, this is not mainstream Christian doctrine.
Although scripture states that Simon Peter and Andrew his brother were Jesus' first disciples, there is no mention of when Judas became a disciple apart from his appearance in the list of Jesus' followers.
Judas betrayed Jesus once. Peter denied Jesus 3 times.
Jesus was close to Simon Peter, Judas of Iscariot, and James, his half brother.
