Luke 6:15

AlphaeusJamesMatthewSimonThomas

13 When daylight came, He called His disciples to Him and chose twelve of them, whom He also designated as apostles:

14 Simon, whom He named Peter, and his brother Andrew; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

Matthew and Thomas; James son of Alphaeus and Simon called the Zealot;

16 Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

17 Then Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place. A large crowd of His disciples was there, along with a great number of people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon.
