Well, honey, there's no mention of any of Jesus' disciples being a lawyer. They were mostly fishermen, a tax collector, and other regular folks. But hey, who knows, maybe one of them had a law degree on the down-low. Jesus did like to shake things up, after all.

Was there any Women Disciples?

Yes, there were women disciples of Jesus. Some prominent examples include Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Susanna, and Mary the mother of James. These women played important roles in Jesus' ministry and were present at significant events in the New Testament.


In what order were the disciples chosen?

In Mark, Jesus saw Peter and his brother Andrew together fishing, and called them to follow him. James and John, sons of Zeberdee, were the next disciples to be chosen. Mark chapter 3 has Jesus formally choose the twelve from those who followed him.In Matthew, Jesus once again saw Peter and his brother Andrew together fishing, and called them to follow him. James and John, sons of Zeberdee, were the next disciples to be chosen. Matthew has Jesus call Matthew the tax-collector.In Luke, Jesus met Simon Peter in his mother's house, but did not call him at that stage. Later, he helped some fishermen in a boat - James and John, sons of Zebedee, and Simon. Jesus told Simon that he would follow Jesus, so the three left their boat and followed Jesus. It was some time later that Jesus actually chose the remainder of his disciples, including Andrew, brother of Peter, but not necessarily in any order.In John's Gospel, Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist. John told him and another disciple to follow Jesus. Later, Andrew fetched his brother Simon, who joined the other disciples. John does not mention all the disciples and provides least information as to when the author believed them to have been chosen.


What did the disciple Nathaniel do?

Nathaniel was a disciple of Jesus Christ, but he was a more qiet of the 12 disciples, The Bible does not say that he wrote any book in the New Testament ,or for the matter did anything of importance, some one like thadeus and Bartholomew.


Where did Jesus walk with some of his disciples after his resurrection?

A:In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus met the two women as they walked, but only met the disciples at a mountain in Galilee and from there sent them forth to teach all nations. In Luke's Gospel, Jesus walked with the two of them on the road to Emmaeus. Afterwards, he met the disciples at an evening meal then walked with them towards Bethany, where he ascended to heaven on the evening of the day of his resurrection.In John's Gospel, Jesus met the disciples twice at a meal in Jerusalem, then by the Sea of Galilee. It does not seem that he walked any great distance with the disciples at all.Mark's Gospel is the interesting one. It was the first New Testament gospel and originally ended at verse 16:8 with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. So, originally Jesus did not even meet the disciples after his burial. The Long Ending was added much later, to add some much-needed resurrection appearances and to conform as closely as possible with Matthew and Luke. He appeared in another form to the "two of them" (Mark 16:12) and we can choose to understand the two either as the two women of Matthew or the two men of Luke. He then met the disciples at a meal, more or less in line with Luke but without the walk to Bethany and the ascension to heaven, and sent them forth to preach everywhere.


Why did Jesus go to Galilee?

It is only in Matthew's Gospel (26:32) and Mark's Gospel (14:28) that Jesus tells the disciples that he will see them in Galilee. Again in Matthew's Gospel (28:10) the risen Jesus tells the women to tell the disciples that he will see them in Galilee. In Mark's Gospel (16:7), the young man inside the tomb repeats the message that Jesus had previously given the disciples, to meet him in Galilee. In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus really did meet the disciples in a mountain in Galilee, just as he had told them he would. This is the one gospel that properly links Jesus' instruction to what happens later. Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. This allows us to assume that Jesus might well have met the disciples there, even if the Gospel does not say so. However, the 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) was subsequently added, and this removes any possibility of Jesus planning to meet the disciples in Galilee, since it portrays him as meeting them at a meal in Jerusalem, where he gave them a parting message. It would not have made sense in Luke's Gospel for Jesus to say that he would meet the disciples in Galilee because, after his resurrection, he met them in Jerusalem and was then taken bodily up into heaven on the very evening of his resurrection. Again, in John's Gospel it would have made little sense for Jesus to say that he would meet the disciples in Galilee because he met them twice in Jerusalem, although he later did meet them in Galilee.

Did any of Jesus' disciples see him baptized?

It is doubtful that Jesus baptised disciples personally, although the New Testament points to disciples of Jesus baptising, likely under His supervision. It is also unclear whether anyone baptised by his disciples became disciples themselves. Remember that Jesus had many more disciples in addition to the Twelve who were later promoted to Apostles. A number of Jesus' disciples were originally disciples of his cousin John, the Baptiser, and were almost undoubtedly baptised by John.

What does Jesus want disciples to know about the wine?

There is no suggestion in the gospels that any of the disciples ever knew about Jesus converting water into wine. In fact this story was entirely unknown until reported in John's Gospel, which was written anonymously around the end of the first century and which scholars say could not have been written by one of the disciples. In any case, there is no suggestion that any of the disciples was present at this private wedding. John's Gospel demonstrates that Jesus was able to perform any of the miracles previously attributed only to the pagan gods. This account shows that, just as Dionysis was reportedly able to turn water into wine, so was Jesus able to do the same.


What is the different between apostle and decipels?
