You will find the answer to that question defined in the book of Matthew, chapter 10. Remember disciples are different from Apostles (Luke 6:13). Disciples are those who are learning form a teacher or instructor. Apostles are this who are taught and are ready to go into the world and do works according to what they have been taught.
Here are the names and orders given to the Apostles
Simon who is called Peter (rock) and Andrew his brother
James the son of Zebedee and John his brother
Phillip and Bartholomew
Thomas and Matthew the publican (revenue collector)
James the son of Alphaeus and Lebbaous who's sir name was Thaddaeous
Simon the Canaanite and Judas Iscariot who also betrayed him
Their orders:
Go not into the way of the Gentiles and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. (it wasn't time for them to go to the gentiles yet, Paul will take that role later).
And as ye go preach saying "The kingdom of heaven is at hand"
Heal the sick
Clense the Lepers
Raise the Dead
Cast out Devils
Freely ye have received, Freely give, Provide neither gold nor silver nor brass in our purses....
These are the 12 Apostles and their orders.
A disciple is a follower of Christ. An apostle is one who is set apart or ordained as a leader is Christ's church. There were, and are 12 apostles to serve in Christ's church. There are millions of "disciples" or followers of Christ.
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.
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.
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.
The event that demonstrated to the 12 disciples that Jesus was the Messiah was his resurrection from the dead.
