Commentaries on Matthew 10:4
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 4Simon - He was third son of Alpheus, and brother of James and Jude, or Judas, Matthew 13:55. The Canaanite - This word is not put here to signify a particular people, as it is elsewhere used in the Sacred Writings; but it is formed from the Hebrew קנא kana, which signifies zealous, literally translated by Luke, Luke 6:15, , zelotes, or the zealous, probably from his great fervency in preaching the Gospel of his Master. But see Luke 6:15. Judas Iscariot…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 4Simon the Canaanite - Luke calls him “Simon Zelotes,” the zealous.

Iscariot might refer to someone from Kerioth in southern Judea (Joshua 15:25) or from Kerioth in Perea (Jeremiah 48:24).Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 44. Simon the Canaanite--rather "Kananite," but better still, "the Zealot," as he is called in Lu 6:15, where the original term should not have been retained as in our version ("Simon, called Zelotes"), but rendered "Simon, called the Zealot." The word "Kananite" is just the Aramaic, or Syro-Chaldaic, term for "Zealot." Probably before his acquaintance with Jesus, he belonged to the sect of the Zealots, who bound themselves, as a sort of voluntary…Read the comment
