12 Disciples of Jesus
trying fine the 12 disciples of jesus in the bible
Yes, it is true that the 12 disciples of Jesus were Jewish.
How many disciples?There were 12 disciples. Judas betrayed Christ, and was replaced by Mathias.
The 12 disciples were not prophets.
The 12 disciples were allowed to take only a staff for their journey.
The apostle Paul was a tent maker by trade but not one of the original 12 chosen by Jesus Christ as disciples.
There is no clear historical evidence to definitively confirm whether the 12 disciples had wives or not. The Bible does not explicitly mention the marital status of all the disciples.
They are usually called the Apostles, but they are also referred to as the 12 Disciples. It's better to always include the 12 (with both Apostles and Disciples), both for clarity and also because Christ had many, many disciples.
Our Lord had 12 apostles. Of those, only Judas Iscariot is not a saint as he was the person who betrayed Our Lord. Matthias took his place as an apostle and he, too, is a saint. As far as disciples, this term means anyone who is a faithful follower of Our Lord - living or dead. There is no way to know this number.
Jesus had 12 Disciples
No, the 12 disciples were not specifically chosen from the 12 tribes of Israel. They were selected by Jesus from various backgrounds to follow him and spread his teachings.
