Mark 3:13-19 - The Selection Of The Twelve Apostles

¹³ And He goes up into the mountain, and calls whom He wished: and they went away to Him. ¹⁴ And He made twelve (apostles) that they may be with Him and that He may send them out to preach, ¹⁵ and to have power to heal diseases, and to cast out the demons.

¹⁶ And He placed the name Peter on Simon; ¹⁷ and James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and on them He placed the names Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder: ¹⁸ and Andrew and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, ¹⁹ who also betrayed Him.

¹² And it came to pass in those days, that He went out into the mountain to pray; and was there through the night in the prayer of God. ¹³ And when it was day, He called His disciples to Him: and having chosen twelve from them, whom He also named apostles;

¹⁴ Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John. Philip and Bartholomew, ¹⁵ Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon called the Zealot; ¹⁶ and Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became His betrayer.
