Reading the New Testament in January 2019

My church has challenged the members to read the entire KJV New Testament in the month of January. Today is the 3rd day and I am right on "shed-dual" (that's schedule for you regular folks). I'm always surprised at how I notice new things even in the most basic of passages. Like this one:
Matthew 10:
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;
3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;
4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
I don't remember hearing about a disciple named Lebbaeus Thaddaeus! Ok, I'm embarrassed!
