A:In Luke's Gospel, John the Baptist is portrayed as a second cousin of Jesus.Uta Ranke-Heinemann discusses this claim, in Putting Away Childish Things, and says that the story is unlikely to be true. Luke's Zacarias is simply an echo of the Old Testament Zechariah and Elizabeth, cousin of Mary is also a literary creation. The story of Zacarias doubting when promised a child, when he and Elizabeth were already stricken with age, was inspired by the story of Isaac being promised to Abraham. The Magnificat (Luke 1:42-55) was created by piecing together several passages in the Old Testament, once again showing that this account was was not actually historical.AnswerIt was John the Baptist. Also, James & John, the sons of Zebedee (Matthew 27:55-56; Mark 15:40; John 19:25-27). Salome (the wife of Zebedee) was the mother of James & John. She was also the sister of Mary, the mother of Jesus, making her sons the cousins of Jesus.
Yes. We are told that John the disciple (not John the baptist!) had a brother called James, who were both sons of a fisherman called Zebedee. Both John and James were disciples of Jesus, and were typical beligerent teenage boys - they were called, in fact, the 'Sons of Thunder'.

It is a proper name. Zebedee was the father of Jesus' apostles James and John.Matthew 4:21 - Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. [NKJV]

No. At least there is no record of this in the Bible. No. But John the Baptist, as well as James & John, the sons of Zebedee were Jesus' cousins.
The three apostles who were with Jesus at Gethsemane were Peter, James and John. See Matthew 26:37.Answer /Peter, John son of Zebedee, and James son of Zebedee.
Many modern critics are of the opinion that James and John, the sons of Zebedee are Jesus' cousins through Salome the mother of James and John. If that is so, and I'm not saying it is, then the cousin's parent's are Salome and her husband Zebedee.
John was the son of Zebedee, a Galilean fisherman, and Salome. John and his brother James were among the first disciples called by Jesus.
Maybe because he was old, or busy fishing. Maybe Jesus called only James and John because they were younger; and Jesus knew that their father Zebedee had to act in accordance with his lifestyle. I hope that helped.
Traditionalist would say no, Zebedee married Salome and had two sons: James known as the great and John the evangelist. Jesus called these two 'Boanerges' or Sons of Thunder. There are some in Christianity that say Salome was an 'Aunt' of Jesus from His mother's side.
The disciples James and John were the sons of Zebedee.
