St. James the Greater, Apostle

The Holy Apostle James, the son of Zebedee, was the brother of Saint John the Theologian, and one of the Twelve Apostles. He and his brother, Saint John, were called to be Apostles by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who called them the “Sons of Thunder” (Mark 3:17). It was this James, with John and Peter, who witnessed the Raising of the Daughter of Jairus, the Lord’s Transfiguration on Mount Tabor, and His agony in the Garden of Gethsemane.

Saint James, after the Descent of the Holy Spirit, preached in Spain and in other lands, and then he returned to Jerusalem. He openly and boldly preached Jesus Christ as the Savior of the world, and he denounced the Pharisees and the Scribes with the words of Holy Scripture, reproaching them for their malice of heart and unbelief. He was put to death by the sword by Herod Agrippa in Jerusalem. Eusebius provides some of the details of the James’ execution (CHURCH HISTORY II, 9).

Saint James was the first of the Apostles to die as a martyr. His followers carried his body back to Spain where he preached, and his tomb at Compostela became one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Western Europe.
