2. Now the names of the twelve apostles are these, the first Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, 3. Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the Publican, James the son of Alpheus, and Lebbeus surnamed Thaddeus. 4. Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot who also betrayed him. These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into ⟨image 16⟩the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6. But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
