OpinionThere are twelve signs of the zodiac, which lead to the concept of having twelve months in the year. Given the importance of Astrology to the ancients, it is considered very likely that the notion of twelve tribes of Israel came from the signs of the zodiac. So, yes, there is an indirect relationship. OpinionNo, there is no connection between the two.

No, the twelve months in the year do not represent the twelve tribes of Israel. The twelve months in the year are based on the Earth's orbit around the sun, while the twelve tribes of Israel are descended from the twelve sons of Jacob.

Do the twelve disciples of Jesus represent the twelve tribes of Israel?

Some who are sceptical about the gospels story say that the twelve disciples represent the twelve tribes of Israel. Some even go further and say that, in both cases, the twelve derives from the twelve star signs in the heavens.Answer 2If the question "represent" is intended as "come from", i.e. did each of Jesus' twelve disciples come from a different tribe, then the answer is: No. All of Jesus' followers were either Levites or Judahites. The other tribes were not represented.Answer/Maybe.According to the Epistle of Barnabas, who wrote: '.. to whom the Lord gave authority to preach his Gospel : being at the beginning twelve, to signify the tribes, because there were twelve tribes of Israel.' Note that the earliest known version of the Epistle of Barnabas is from the 4th century (~300 years after Barnabas walked the earth) and is only only ascribed to Barnabas by tradition so its authenticity is unknown.
