James the Less (Ἰάκωβος, Iakōbos). Also James the Younger. A man mentioned as the son of a certain Mary and brother of Joses in Mark 15:40. Some have argued, based in part on Mark 6:3, that he is to be identified with James the brother of Jesus. This title has also been applied in church tradition to James, son of Alphaeus, to distinguish him from James the Great, son of Zebedee. This James, son of Mary, is possibly also mentioned in Matt 27:56 and Luke 24:10.
