The apostles are listed in the following references: Matthew 10: 1-4, Mark 3:13-19 and Luke 6: 12-16 The 12 apostles are listed there as: Peter, renamed by Jesus because of Peter's dependability ('Peter' means 'Rock'), his original name was Simon and he was a fisherman from Galilee Andrew, brother of Simon/Peter, also a fisherman, and a former disciple of John the Baptist James, son of Zebedee (also a fisherman) and the brother of John. John, the brother of James Philip from Galilee Bartholemewof Talemai - also called 'Nathaniel' Matthew - also called Levi - a tax collector Thomas - also called 'the twin' James, son of Alpheus (called 'James the less') Thaddeus - also called Jude, Judas, son of James or Lebbaeus Simon the Zealot Judas Iscariot - The disciple who later betrayed Jesus. After Jesus' crucifixion Judas hanged himself, and so he was replaced by Matthias (Acts 1: 12-26) John's goapel, unlike the others, does not give a formal list of apostles, although it does refer to the Twelve in Chapter 6 vs.67 - 71. The following nine apostles are identified by name: * Peter * Andrew (identified as Peter's brother) * the sons of Zebedee(presumably meaning John and James, though they are not named) * Philip * Nathaniel * Thomas * Judas Iscariot * Judas (not Iscariot) i.e. (Thaddeus or Jude)
