Jesus had 4 brothers-James, Joses, Simon and Jude. They did not believe that Jesus was the Messiah during his life and were not present at his crucifixion. James and Jude would come to faith in Christ after his resurrection. James becomes the leader of the early church in Jerusalem. James and Jude each authored a book in the New Testament.
