Going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother in their boat mending nets.

Immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.

to James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee, he gave the name Boanerges (that is, "sons of thunder");
