And immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and followed him.

James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, "Sons of Thunder";

Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him and said, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask."
