The account of Jesus life is contained in the four Gospel accounts of The Bible; the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke & John. These Bible books chronicle how Jesus selected these men individually.
The names of the original 12 selected are in these scriptures:
(Matthew 10:2-4) 2 The names of the twelve apostles are these: First, Simon, the one called Peter, and Andrew his brother; and James the [son] of Zeb′e·dee and John his brother; 3 Philip and Bar·thol′o·mew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the [son] of Al·phae′us, and Thad·dae′us; 4 Simon the Ca·na·nae′an, and Judas Is·car′i·ot, who later betrayed him. . .
(Mark 3:16-19) 16 And the [group of] twelve that he formed were Simon, to whom he also gave the surname Peter, 17 and James the [son] of Zeb′e·dee and John the brother of James (he also gave these the surname Bo·a·ner′ges, which means Sons of Thunder), 18 and Andrew and Philip and Bar·thol′o·mew and Matthew and Thomas and James the [son] of Al·phae′us and Thad·dae′us and Simon the Ca·na·nae′an 19 and Judas Is·car′i·ot, who later betrayed him.. . .
(Luke 6:13-16) 13 But when it became day he called his disciples to him and chose from among them twelve, whom he also named apostles: 14 Simon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bar·thol′o·mew, 15 and Matthew and Thomas, and James [the son] of Al·phae′us, and Simon who is called "the zealous one," 16 and Judas [the son] of James, and Judas Is·car′i·ot, who turned traitor.
After Judas Iscariot betrays Jesus, the remaining 11 faithful apostles are listed here:
(Acts 1:13) 13 So, when they had entered, they went up into the upper chamber, where they were staying, Peter as well as John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bar·thol′o·mew and Matthew, James [the son] of Al·phae′us and Simon the zealous one, and Judas [the son] of James.
In mark13-17 it talks about the twelve apostles being named
In Bible, it is found in Matthew 10:2-4, Mark 3:16-19, Luke 6:12-19
No, the names of the 12 Tribes of Israel are on the Gates. The 12 Apostle's names are on the foundations of the wall of the city:Revelation 21:12-14New International Version (NIV) 12 It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. 13 There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south and three on the west. 14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.In Scripture, the number 12 represents 'organizational beginnings.'
· Jacob · James the Apostle · Jesus · John the Baptist · Joshua · Judas Iscariot
Their names were common names for the time period. Example: Jude, Judas, Jesus are all variations of the same name.
the twelve disciples i know of for sure
Most of the books of the New Testament were written by apostles or other disciples of Jesus Christ. Matthew the apostle wrote a gospel. John the apostle wrote a gospel, three epistles and Revelation. Peter the apostle wrote two epistles, although recent scholarship has indicated that "2 Peter" was written many decades after his death by a follower. James and Jude each wrote an epistle, but they are probably not the two apostles by those names but two others known as brothers of the Lord. Mark, a follower of Peter, wrote a gospel. Luke, a follower of Paul, wrote a gospel and the Acts of the Apostles. Paul, an apostle but not one of the twelve who followed Jesus Christ during his public life, wrote 13 epistles. The author of the Epistle to the Hebrews is unknown.
Matthew 10:2 is the beginning of the list of the names of the twelve apostles of Jesus.
Matthias was elected as a replacement for Judas. Paul was called directly by Jesus on the Damascus road.
The twelve men were called Disciples. There names were, Judas Iscariot, Simon Peter, John, Andrew, Philip, Nathanael, James, Thomas, Simon the zealot, Mathew, and Thaddeus. They also held a special 'office' of Apostle.
With all due respect I think that you mean 3 Apostles who walked with Jesus. A Disciple is someone who believes and helps to spread the doctrine of another. While an Apostle according to the New Testament is one of the original 12 disciples chosen by Christ to preach his gospel. These twelve were given the specifc calling to do so and no doubt held the Priesthood while a disciple may not. As the First Presidency of the new church Peter, James and Jonn would be the names I would suggest.
Simon, Andrew, James, John, Philip Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James, Simon, Judas, Judas
Minus twelve
Yes, the word apostle is a noun since it names a group of people.
