This Apostle was one of the Twelve, and was called Simon the Cananite by Matthew, but Simon the Zealot by Luke (Matt. 10:4; Luke 6:15). The word “Cananite” used by Matthew is believed to be derived from kana, which in the Palestinian dialect of Aramaic means “zealot” or zealous”; Luke therefore translates the meaning of “Cananite.” Later accounts say that he was the bridegroom at the wedding in Cana of Galilee, where the Lord Jesus changed the water into wine, making this the first of His miracles (John 2:1-11); according to some, he is called Cananite because he was from Cana (according to others, from the Land of Canaan). Simon means “one who hears.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
