Jesus had many 'DISCIPLES' (Luke 6:13-16), twelve of whom were chosen as 'APOSTLES', with special privileges and responsibilities (Matthew 10:1-4)(Matthew 11:1), heading up the Christian preaching work, and continuing to make disciples from all nations (Matthew 28:19+20, Matthew 24:14)
Jesus had 12 disciples, not 13.
There were a total of 12 disciples in all, and Jesus was not counted among them at all.
Jesus' disciples
There were 13 people at the last supper 12 disciples and Jesus.
They all faithly remained Jesus disciples after his death.
Jesus and his 12 disciples
Jesus' disciples were primarily Jewish.
The disciples viewed Jesus as the Messiah; the son of God.
The disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray.
In the bible the number 13 stands for the number of people at the last supper. The twelve disciples and Jesus.
Why did Jesus call the disciples?Jesus called the disciples because He wanted followers. The disciples (Jesus' followers) set an example for people back in Biblical times. The disciples were very helpful (most of them anyways.)
He washed the disciples' feet. See John chapter 13.
