No one really knows. However, the disciples who were fishermen like Peter and Andrew his brother, would have to be fit enough to work hard as fishermen. As life expectancy in that country at that time was no more than about 40 years of age (although some did live to a ripe old age, but this was unusual), it is likely that Peter and Andrew would be relatively young men in their late 20s or early 30s (like Jesus himself - around 30-33).
Matthew (also called Levi) being a tax collector, had a sedentary job and could be any age from 20s through to 40s or more.
No indications are give of the other disciples, including Judas Iscariot, but it is likely they would fit into the same range - from 25 - 40.
However, the disciples James and his brother John were known as 'Sons of Thunder' and their father, Zebedee himself was a fisherman, owning a boat. Therefore, by the same logic as Peter and Andrew, Zebedee would have to be in his 30s at the oldest, meaning that James and John were little more than teenagers. This fits well with the story of their mother asking Jesus about who should sit at his right hand in his kingdom (Matthew 20:20) - the first recorded incident in the New Testament of a 'pushy parent' trying to get the best for her two boys! It also agrees with their title 'sons of thunder' - as two beligerent teenage boys. Finally, the evidence that John was but a teenager when he was a discple of Jesus allows for the fact that he was able to write his gospel much later in the first Century - around 80-100AD, when he was a very old man.
Answerif you look in Matthew 17:24-27 you will see that the deciples had to enter a town one day and to get in you had to pay a fee. Jesus started talking to peter and said catch a fish and the money will b in his mouth for you and thee. You had to be over 20 to pay the tax fee........then i asked the man who told me this, what is thee ment all the deciples.Well he looked it up and it said that thee was singular meaning only one person proving that peter and JEsus were the only deciples over 20The 12 disciples were the closest followers of Jesus during his ministry.
about three, give or take. Jesus began his ministry at age thirty and was crucified when thirty-three.
Jesus sent out his disciples on a mission during his ministry, as recorded in the Bible in the book of Matthew, chapter 10.
Judas was the treasurer for Jesus and the disciples.
The disciples of Jesus in order of their significance in his ministry were Peter, James, and John. These three disciples were often chosen by Jesus to witness important events such as the Transfiguration and the raising of Jairus' daughter.
The calling of the disciples took place at the beginning of Jesus' ministry, shortly after he was baptized by John the Baptist.
The twelve disciples.
12 Disciples of Jesus
Praying to His father in Heaven to receive what the father wanted Him to do and for support, and heeding the Holy Spirit for the working of miracles. Not much different from today's disciples if they want a successful ministry.

John is one of the disciples of Jesus Christ.
Jesus chose to take Peter, John, and James with him during certain significant events in his ministry because they were considered his closest and most trusted disciples. These three disciples were present during key moments such as the Transfiguration and the raising of Jairus' daughter, indicating their importance in Jesus' inner circle.
