Mark 1:16-3:6

Listen Later
Mark 1, continued:
Jesus calls disciples and appoints the twelve
  • Mark 1:16-20; 2:13-14; 3:13-21
  • When Jesus appointed the twelve, there appear to have been others there with Him, which was important when a replacement was needed for Judas. The requirement for a man to be appointed an apostle was that he had been with them the entire time (Acts 1:21-26).
