Matthew was a 1st-century Galilean

As a tax collector he would have been literate in Aramaic and Greek

Matthew was a dishonest tax collector driven by greed, until Jesus Christ chose him as a disciple.

Matthew was named Levi before his call by Jesus. , but it is a shortening of the name Mattathias, which means "the gift of God."

On the same day Jesus invited Matthew to follow him, Matthew threw a great farewell feast in his home in Capernaum, inviting his friends so they could meet Jesus too.

Matthew's Strengths

Matthew was an accurate record keeper. He knew the human heart and the longings of the Jewish people. He was loyal to Jesus and once committed, he never wavered in serving the Lord.

Matthew's Weaknesses

Before he met Jesus, Matthew was greedy. He thought money was the most important thing in life and violated God's laws to enrich himself at the expense of his countrymen.

Matthew: According to legend, the former tax collector turned missionary was martyred in Ethiopia, where he was supposedly stabbed in the back by an swordsman sent by King Hertacus, after he criticised the king’s morals.

Matthew preached the Gospel for many years after the death of Christ, traveling throughout the Holy Land . His final verse is his epitaph. "Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. AMEN

The New Testament records that as a disciple, Matthew followed Jesus, and was one of the witnesses of the Resurrection and the Ascension of Jesus.

The Gospel of Matthew is anonymous: the author is not named within the text, and the superscription "according to Matthew" was added some time in the second century

Matthew was unaware of what lay dormant in him that was to place him in the forefront of Christianity.

It has been said that the apostle Peter was a slender person.  He was of a middle size, inclining to tallness, and that his complexion was pale (almost white.)  It has, also, been said that he had a short, thick, curled beard, thin eyebrows (or no eyebrows at all.)

He was one of the most obscure among the apostles of Jesus.

Feastday: October 28

Death: 65 or 107

Simon was surnamed the Zealot for his adherence to the Jewish law and to the Canaanite law.
He was one of the original followers of Christ. Western tradition is that he preached in Egypt and then went to Persia with St. Jude, where both suffered martyrdom. Eastern tradition says Simon died peacefully at Edessa.

Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew, Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes, And Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, which also was the traitor.

— Luke 6:14–16

He had been a merchant in Capernaum before he turned his entire attention to the patriotic organization of the Zealots

Simon Zelotes was given charge of the diversions and relaxation of the apostolic group, and he was a very efficient organizer of the play life and recreational activities of the twelve.

Simon's strength was his inspirational loyalty When the apostles found a man or woman who floundered in indecision about entering the kingdom, they would send for Simon. It usually required only about fifteen minutes for this enthusiastic advocate of salvation through faith in God to settle all doubts and remove all indecision, to see a new soul born into the "liberty of faith and the joy of salvation."

Of the final days of the apostle Peter in Rome, Italy, Jowett wrote that Peter was cast into a horrible prison called the Mamertine.  For nine months, in  darkness, he endured torture manacled to a post.  In spite of all the suffering Peter  converted his jailers, Processus, Martinianus, and forty-seven others.

Peter met his death at the hand of the Romans in Nero's circus, 67AD.

Simon Zelotes, the eleventh apostle, was chosen by Simon Peter. He was an able man of good ancestry and lived with his family at Capernaum. He was twenty-eight years old when he became attached to the apostles. He was a fiery agitator and was also a man who spoke much without thinking. He had been a merchant in Capernaum before he turned his entire attention to the patriotic organization of the Zealots.

Simon Zelotes was given charge of the diversions and relaxation of the apostolic group, and he was a very efficient organizer of the play life and recreational activities of the twelve.

- died 30AD
- One of Jesus' original 12 disciples
-  traveled with Jesus and studied under him for three years
- Notorious for betraying Jesus
- Other than his apostleship, his betrayal, and his death, little else is revealed about Judas in the Gospels
- disclosed Jesus’ whereabouts to the chief priests and elders for 30 pieces of silver
-  he identified Jesus with a kiss, addressing him as “master”
- John 6:70–71, “Did I not choose you, the Twelve, and one of you is a devil?” discloses that he meant “Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the Twelve, was to betray him.”
- According to Matt. 27:3–10, he repented after seeing Jesus condemned to death, then returned the silver and hanged himself (traditionally from the Judas tree)
- his name became a symbol for traitors and turncoats throughout history
- He was in charge of the group's money bag and sometimes stole from it
- He made a conscience choice to betray Jesus - Luke 22:48
- He was a thief with greed in his heart - John 12:6
- Jesus knew Judas' heart was set on evil and that he would not repent - John 6:70, John 17:12
- Judas' act of betrayal was part of God's sovereign plan - Psalm 41:9, Zechariah 11:12-13, Matthew 20:18 and 26:20-25, Acts 1:16, 20
- Judas’ surname is more probably a corruption of the Latin sicarius(“murderer” or “assassin”) than an indication of family origin, suggesting that he would have belonged to the Sicarii, the most radical Jewish group, some of whom were terrorists
- Jesus said that Judas Iscariot was not “clean”; i.e., he had not been born again and was not forgiven of his sins (John 13:10–11)
- “As soon as Judas took the bread [that Jesus had given him], Satan entered into him” (John 13:27)

The Apostle James  ( The Son of Alphaeus )

Good Afternoon! Let us rejoice in the Lord.

The apostle James ( the son of Alphaeus), who is also called "Less" or "Younger," was a brother of the apostle Matthew and the son of Mary.  Which Mary is not altogether certain though she seems to be the wife of one Cleopas (Cleophas), which may have been another or second name for Alphaeus.

James was a native of Capernaum (located on the northwestern shores of the Sea of Galilee in Israel.)  It is believed that he was from the Jewish tribe of Levi, however, this is not certain.

Not much is known about the latter ministry of of this apostle, however, Aziz S. Atiya, in his "History of Eastern Christianity" says," The seeds of Syrian Christianity had been sown in Jerusalem during the Apostolic age and the contention has been made that the first bishop of the Syrian church was none other than St. James of the Twelve Apostles, identified as 'St. James the Less'."

It has also been said that James (son of Alphaeus) was stoned in Jerusalem for preaching Christ and buried by the Sanctuary.

His feast day is celebrated on 27 December

John and Peter were the only two apostles sent by Jesus to make preparations for the final Passover meal, the Last Supper. During the meal, St. John sat next to Jesus, leaning on him rather than lying along the couches.

St. John is called the Apostle of Charity, a virtue he had learned from his Divine Master, and which he constantly inculcated by word and example.

Saint John was said to be the long living apostle and only not to die a martyrs death (excluding Judas who committed suicide).
John, along side Peter, were the only two apostles sent to make preparations for the Last Supper. Where he sat beside Jesus. He was the only one of the twelve apostles who did not forsake the Saviour in the hour of HIs Passion. He stood faithfully at the cross when the saviour made him the guardian of his mother.
The Roman authorities banished him to the Greek Island Patmos; this is where he allegedly wrote the book of Revelation.  It is said John was banished in the 1st century, during the reign of Domitian, after being plunged into boiling oil in Rome and suffering no Injuries. Reportedly converting the crowd in the Colessum to christianity.
John is known as the author of the Gospel of John and four other books in the new testament-the three Epistles and the book of Revelation.
St John is called the Apostle of Charity, a virtue he learned from his Divine Master. He died in Ephesus after AD 98, where a church was built over his tome. He was the patron of love, loyalty, friendships and authors.

Andrew, like his brother Simon Peter, was a fisherman. He became a  of the great St. John the Baptist, but when John pointed to Jesus and said, "Behold the Lamb of God!" Andrew understood that Jesus was greater. At once he left John to follow the Divine Master. Jesus knew that Andrew was walking behind him, and turning back, he asked, "what do you seek?" When Andrew answered that he would like to know where Jesus lived, Our Lord replied, "Come and see." Andrew had been only a little time with Jesus when he realised that this was truly the Messiah.

From then on, he chose to follow Jesus. Andrew was thus the first disciple of Christ. Next, Andrew brought his brother Simon (St. Peter) to Jesus and Jesus received him, too, as His disciple. At first the two brothers continued to carry on their fishing trade and Family affairs, but later, the Lord called them to stay with Him all the time. He promised to make them fishers of men, and this time, they left their nets for good. It is believed that after Our Lord ascended into Heaven, St. Andrew went to Greece to preach the gospel. He is said to have been put to death on a cross, to which he was tied, not nailed. He lived two days in that state of suffering, still preaching to the people who gathered around their beloved Apostle. Two countries have chosen St. Andrew as their patron - Russia and Scotland.

Overview:

Judas is one of the twelve Apostles

His full name Judas Iscariot

He betrayed Christ to the Jewish authorities in return for thirty pieces of silver

Where is he from:

All of Jesus' disciples appear to have come from Galilee, but Judas is the one case where that might not be true.

One of the possible interpretations of the name Iscariot is “man of Karioth,” a city in Judea.

How did they die/martyr or not:

Overcome with remorse, he later committed suicide by hanging, and was buried in the Potter's field.

Judas Iscariot's Accomplishments:

Judas traveled with Jesus and studied under him for three years.

-tax collector, before he was called as one of the Lord’s Apostles. Because of that profession, we can guess that he was well educated and knew how to read and write, probably in several languages, including Greek. He also knew arithmetic.

Matthew was a man who could have moved comfortably in political circles, and his book mentions things that someone in his position would know. For example, his account of theResurrection tells that those assigned to guard the Savior’s tomb saw two angels roll back the stone that covered the door of the tomb. They told their superiors what had happened, so the soldiers were offered large sums of money to say that the Lord’s followers had crept in and carried His body away. This lie was then spread among the Jews. (See Matthew 28:2–15.) Matthew must have been informed about the bribery. The book of Matthew is the only place this interesting bit of information is told.

According to legend, the former tax collector turned missionary was martyred in Ethiopia, where he was supposedly stabbed in the back by an swordsman sent by King Hertacus, after he criticized the king’s morals.

Peter was an apostle from Bethsaida. His job before he was called by Jesus, was a fisherman.

The apostle Peter did not always carry that name. He was named Simeon during his early life. When he was chosen by Jesus, He game Simeon the name Peter; which is latin for Peta, which means 'rock.' Jesus chose this name for Peter because He wanted him to be the Rock of His church.

Before Peter was called to Jesus, he was a very sinful man. Although as an apostle; he was very successful. As the first apostle selected by Jesus, he played a very important role in the church. Peter was the first one to preach on the day of Pentecost after the coming of the Holy Spirit and he was the first one to proclaim Christ to a Gentile. He was the boldest apostle, and his work stood out. In the last 33 years of his life; he proclaimed Jesus' message

Peter was said to be crucified upside down because he felt unworthy to be crucified in the way that the Lord Jesus Christ had been. Peters death was predicted by Jesus. “Stretching out” his hands could be a prediction of Peter dying on a cross with his arms outstretched.
