These are the people in order from left to right, and describe their positions in the painting:

Bartholomew, James, son of Alphaeus and Andrew form a group of three, all are surprised.

Judas Iscariot, Peter and John form another group of three. Judas is wearing green and blue and is in shadow, looking rather withdrawn and taken aback by the sudden revelation of his plan. He is clutching a small bag, perhaps signifying the silver given to him as payment to betray Jesus, or perhaps a reference to his role within the 12 disciples as treasurer. He is not the only person to have his elbow on the table, the painting also shows Jude Thaddeus with his elbow on the table, traditionally a sign of bad manners. Peter looks angry and is holding a knife, pointed away from Christ; perhaps foreshadowing his violent reaction in Gethsemane during Jesus' arrest. The youngest apostle, John, appears to swoon.

Thomas, James, son of Zebedee and Philip are the next group of three. Thomas is clearly upset; James the Greater looks stunned, with his arms in the air. Meanwhile, Philip appears to be requesting some explanation.

Matthew, Jude Thaddeus and Simon the Zealot are the final group of three. Both Jude Thaddeus and Matthew are turned toward Simon, perhaps to find out if he has any answer to their initial questions.

From left to right: Bartholomew, James, Andrew, Judas, Peter, John (or Mary Magdalene, if you believe the da-Vinci-code-type hype!), Jesus, Thomas, another James, Philip, Matthew, Thaddeus, Simon. My biblical knowledge isn't the best, but I think it's safe to assume that they all loved Jesus, even Judas who betrayed him, as they were his original followers.

its the disciples - it depends on the order that the painter put them in - they were all his followers, but im not sure if judas (the bad one, there were 2 i think) was there or not - i think that judas probably liked Jesus at first but then got greedy for the money from the ppl that ended up killing Jesus

The twelve disciples with Judas, the waiter being bent over to pick up something dropped.
