Footnotes

  1. 6:14 Simon, whom he named Peter: see note on Mk 3:16.
  2. 6:15 Simon who was called a Zealot: the Zealots were the instigators of the First Revolt of Palestinian Jews against Rome in A.D. 66–70. Because the existence of the Zealots as a distinct group during the lifetime of Jesus is the subject of debate, the meaning of the identification of Simon as a Zealot is unclear.
  3. 6:16 Judas Iscariot: the name Iscariot may mean “man from Kerioth.”
