Jesus recruited 12 disciples in his missionary career: Jesus called twelve disciples and gave them the ability to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases. The names of the twelve apostles: the first is Simon, also known as Peter, and his brothers Andrew, Zebedee and James, sons of John, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew, the tax collector, James, son of Alphaeus, Simon David, a fanatical party, and Judas Iscariot (Matthew), who betrayed Jesus. 10: 1-4).
