Affected Teaching
Lebbaeus, the name means “courageous.” He was also
called Judas Lebbaeus. He was probably the brother of James mentioned in Luke
6:16. Luke 6:16 (KJV) And Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot,
which also was the traitor. He was also called “Thaddeus” which means
praise. It was not uncommon for people to have more than one name. The father in
law of Moses had three names:
Exodus 3:1 (KJV) Now Moses kept the flock of
Jethro his father in law, the
priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came
to the mountain of God, even to Horeb.
Exodus 2:18 (KJV) And when they came to
Reuel their father, he said,
How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
Numbers 10:29 (KJV) And Moses said unto
Hobab, the son of Raguel the
Midianite, Moses' father in law, We are journeying unto the place of which the
LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for
the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel.
The modern versions only mention the third name of
“Judas” brother of James, thus leaving out a vital piece of information. If a
census was taken like in the time of Ezra, the name Thaddeus would not appear in
the lineage of Israel but the name “Judas” would. It would cause confusion in
trying to prove that Judas was a true Israelite.
