Zebedee:
a Galilean fisherman, the husband of Salome (q.v.), and the father of James and John, two of our Lord's disciples (Mat 4:21; 27:56; Mar 15:40). He seems to have been a man of some position in Capernaum, for he had two boats (Luk 5:4) and "hired servants" (Mar 1:20) of his own. No mention is made of him after the call of his two sons by Jesus.
Zebedee:
abundant; portion
Zebedee:
(my gift) (Greek form of Zabdi) a fisherman of Galilee, the father of the apostles James the Great and John (Matthew 4:21) and the husband of Salome (Matthew 27:56; Mark 15:40). He probably lived either at Bethsaida or in its immediate neighborhood. It has been inferred from the mention of his "hired servants," (Mark 1:20) and from the acquaintance between the apostle John and Annas the high priest (John 18:15) that the family of Zebedee were in easy circumstances (compare John 19:27) although not above manual labor (Matthew 4:21). He appears only twice in the Gospel narrative, namely, in Matthew 4:21-22; Mark 1:19-20, where he is seen in his boat with his two sons mending their nets.
