No he wasn't Simon Peter was a fisher and the he was known to be Peter. Simon was a zealot
In Luke 6: 12-16, after a night of prayer in the mountains that the next day he chose the twelve disciples whom he name apostles. And, Simon the Zealot was selected at that time.
yes
It is believed that Simon the Zealot was martyred in Persia sometime in the first century. The exact date of his death is not known.
No, Simon Peter was not a zealot. He was one of the twelve apostles chosen by Jesus and is often considered the leader of the apostles.
Nobody knows. Simon the zealot's name was only mentioned in the bible. Unfortunately nothing else is known about him other than a few traditions and legends (most of which contradict each other).
There are no quotes in the Bible from Simon Zelotes, as far as I can see.
I think you have confused one of the apostles named James with the apostle Simon the Zealot. They are different people.
There is no record of his wife or family in the Bible.
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."
Two were named Simon - Simon Peter, and Simon the Zealot.
