Answer 2

There were twelve of them.

• Simon. More generally known as Peter. The brother of Andrew. A fisherman from the Sea of Galilee. Considered to be the most impulsive of the group, always ready to speak up, and swing a sword on occasion (e.g. the cutting off of a man's ear at the time of Jesus' arrest - see The Fateful Night). Some traditions hold that he was eventually crucified, upside down, by the Romans. There has been a very long debate as to whether or not he was actually the first pope.
• Andrew. He was active in bringing people to Jesus, including his brother Peter.
• James. James was the older brother of John. He was the first of The Twelve to be martyred.
• John. See The Apostle John and The Island Of Patmos
• Philip. From Bethsaida, as were Andrew and Peter. Eventually martyred, possibly at Hierapolis.
• Bartholomew. He was one of the disciples to whom Jesus appeared at the Sea of Tiberias after His resurrection. He was also a witness of the Ascension.
• Thomas. He was also called Didymus which is the Greek version of his name. Not easily convinced, he has the nickname "Doubting Thomas" because he wanted to actually see and touch Jesus after His Resurrection. Certainly a good witness for us today, because he wanted indisputable proof of what he was expected to report about, and he got it.
• Matthew. Formerly a tax-collector at Capernaum, he became one of the more prominent apostles.
• James. Known as James the Younger, or James the Less, he wrote the epistle which bears his name.
• Thaddaeus. Also known as "Judas the brother of James;" while John probably referring to the same person, speaks of "Judas, not Iscariot."
• Simon the Zealot. The Zealots were a nationalistic sect with very strong political views. There seemed to be a wide variety of personalities among the apostles.
• Judas Iscariot. The traitor.
• Matthias. To bring the number back up to twelve after Judas fell away, Matthias was chosen by the remaining eleven apostles.

Answer 3

Matthew 10:2-4 - Simon, the one called Peter, and Andrew his brother; and James the [son] of Zeb′e·dee and John his brother; Philip and Bar·thol′o·mew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the [son] of Al·phae′us, and Thad·dae′us; Simon the Ca·na·nae′an, and Judas Is·car′i·ot, who later betrayed him.
After the betrayal of Judas Iscariot, an apostle was found to replace him, they drew lots to see which one it would be and it was Matthias - Acts 1:26 says - So they cast lots over them, and the lot fell upon Mat·thi′as; and he was reckoned along with the eleven apostles.

Answer 4

Matthew 10:2-4 The names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas (Didymus) and Matthew (Levi) the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus (Lebbeus, called Thaddeus); 4 Simon the Cananaean (Zealotes), and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Answer 6

According with some original texts it was Maria Magdalena the 13-th apostle - which make cindy right! :D

All we have been served is just compilations to fit someones' needs! That's what I hate about Christianism: they continuously fine-tune their religion as if it was some sort of radio receiver or something.

Answer 7
