From Wikipedia

Alphaeus (; Ancient Greek: Ἀλφαῖος, romanized: Alphaios) is a man mentioned in the New Testament seemingly as the father of two of the Twelve Apostles: Matthew the Evangelist and James, son of Alphaeus. However, Mark 2:14 in Codex Bezae uses the name Levi rather than Matthew. It is therefore highly probable that the Alphaeus mentioned in the names "James son of Alphaeus" and "Levi son of Alphaeus" are the same person called Alphaeus. He is implied to be the father of Joseph or Joses, and in Church tradition he is the father of Abercius and Helena.
