Jesus Appoints Twelve Apostles^(A)

¹³ Yeshua went up a mountain, called those whom he wanted, and they came to him. ¹⁴ He appointed twelve whom he called apostles.^[a] They were to accompany him and to be sent out by him to spread the Good News. ¹⁵ They also had the authority to force demons out of people.

¹⁶ He appointed these twelve: Simon (whom Yeshua named Peter), ¹⁷ James and his brother John (Zebedee’s sons whom Yeshua named Boanerges, which means “Thunderbolts”), ¹⁸ Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James (son of Alphaeus), Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot, ¹⁹ and Judas Iscariot (who later betrayed Yeshua).
