The significance of the disciples:
The importance of Jesus and His disciples plays a central role in Christianity. The disciples were Jesus' closest followers, accompanying Him during His ministry. They learned from Him, spread His teachings, and played a crucial role in the formation and spread of Christianity.
The 12 disciples: Jesus chose twelve men, later known as the "Apostles." This number holds symbolic significance as it represents the twelve tribes of Israel.
Their names are: John, Thomas, Philip, Matthew, Peter, James the Greater, Andrew, Bartholomew, Judas Iscariot, Simon, Paul, and James.
Their role: The disciples were not only students but also witnesses to Jesus' miracles, His teachings, and His death and resurrection. After Jesus' death, they took on the mission of spreading His gospel and became the founders of the early Church.
Symbolism and discipleship: The disciples embody the concept of "discipleship," which involves serving and learning in the spirit of Jesus. Their relationship with Jesus reflects the ideal of close community and deep devotion to faith.
