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

¹³ And he went up to the mountain and called unto himself whom he would, and they came unto him. ¹⁴ And he established twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach ¹⁵ and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out devils:

¹⁶ Simon, whom he gave the name Peter; ¹⁷ and James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, whom he surnamed them Boanerges, which is The sons of thunder; ¹⁸ and Andrew and Philip and Bartholomew and Matthew and Thomas and James the son of Alphaeus and Thaddaeus and Simon the Canaanite ¹⁹ and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him; and they came home.

¹² And it came to pass in those days that he went out into the mountain to pray and continued all night in prayer to God. ¹³ And when it was day, he called unto him his disciples; and of them he chose twelve, 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 Alphaeus and Simon called Zelotes ¹⁶ and Judas the brother of James and Judas Iscariot, who also was the traitor.
