The Twelve Are Appointed

¹³ And He goes up on the mountain and summons whom He was wanting. And they went to Him. ¹⁴ And He appointed twelve, whom He also named apostles, in order that they might be with Him, and in order that He might send them out to proclaim ¹⁵ and to have authority to cast out the demons. ¹⁶ And He appointed the twelve, even Peter (He put the name on Simon), ¹⁷ and James, the son of Zebedee, and John, the brother of James (and He put on them the name Boanerges, which means “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 Cananaean^[a], ¹⁹ and Judas Iscariot, who also handed Him over.
