Best Answer

Prior to the Resurrection, the disciples did not fully understand who Jesus was. After His death, none of them believed that He would live again.It was only when they saw Him bodily and had his identity confirmed that they believed. What they witnessed turned them from fearful men hiding from the Jewish authorities into bold witnesses of what they had seen and who Jesus really was. Many of them would suffer greatly for sticking to their testimony.

Who was Jesus's disciples?

Followers of Jesus. The Book of Acts says that after Jesus' resurrection, 120 of his followers met together in Jerusalem to pray before their baptism in the Holy Spirit. So, it's reasonable to assume that before Jesus' resurrection (when a lot of his followers scattered), there were probably a couple hundred people following him around. Of those, he chose 72 to send out on at least one occasion. The 12 Disciples that we usually think of were his "inner circle," his closest friends whom he taught in private, and whom were designated "apostles": Peter, John, James, Matthew, etc.
