No, Paul did not take the place of Judas as one of the original twelve apostles. Matthias was chosen by the other apostles to replace Judas, as described in Acts 1:15-26. Paul, originally known as Saul, became an apostle later through a direct encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus.

According to the Gospel of Luke who were the twelve apostles?

The apostles were 12 men chosen by Jesus Christ (c. 6 b.c.-c. a.d. 30) to be his close followers. The apostles helped spread the word that they believed Jesus to be the Son of God. Matthew 10:1 explains that Jesus gave the 12 authority to drive out unclean spirits and to cure every kind of illness.In Matthew 10:2-4, the names of the 12 apostles are given as Simon Peter (who is later simply called Peter), Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot. But the lists of apostles found in Luke 6:13-16 and in Acts 1:13 differ from that found in Matthew. While both Luke and Acts cite (Simon) Peter, Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, they do not name Thaddaeus, but rather Judas the son of James. In other words, the lists agree on 11 of the 12 names.After Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus Christ, Matthias was chosen by the apostles to take his place (this is described in Acts 1: 21-26). He was considered eligible since, like the 11 remaining apostles, he accompanied Jesus from the time of Jesus's baptism until "the day he was taken up from us."there were 12 apostles and the names were Judas Iscariot, Judas (also called Thaddaeus), Simon, James ( sone of Alphaeus), Thomas, Matthew, Nathanael, Philip, John, James ( brother of John), Andrew, Peter.


When did Matthias replace Judas?

At Peter's insistence (since he was the leader of the Apostles in Christ's absence), they replaced Judas by casting lots. This is recorded in Acts 1:26 "And they drew lots for them, and the lot fell to Matthias; and he was added to the eleven apostles."
