Jude the Apostle was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus, generally identified as Thaddeus. He is honored in the Armenian Apostolic Church and the Catholic Church as the patron saint of desperate cases and lost causes. Jude is often depicted with a club and a flame around his head, symbolizing his presence at Pentecost. He is also shown holding the Image of Edessa, a scroll or book (the Epistle of Jude), or a carpenter’s rule in various artistic representations, reflecting his connection to Jesus and the early Christian community.
