Sons of thunder. Jesus gave the nickname to two brothers together, James and John, and it fits their hot temper.

Who this is

Boanerges, meaning sons of thunder, is not an individual but a nickname Jesus gave jointly to the brothers James and John (Mark 3:17). The name reflects their fervent and sometimes impetuous temperament, seen when they wanted to call down fire on a Samaritan village that rejected Jesus (Luke 9:54).
