Jobs of the 12 Disciples

Los 12 discípulos de Jesús y su ocupación

Los trabajos de los 12 discípulos siempre han sido un tema de deliberación a lo largo del tiempo. El12 discípulos de Jesús are a set of selected elites in the Bible and the Scriptures also made us understand that the 12 disciples of Jesus represented the 12 tribes in Israel.

Uno pensaría que estos hombres serían hombres extraordinarios con habilidades poderosas en su nacimiento, pero es al revés.

These disciples got their fame by being with Jesus and doing ministry work with Him. Let’s take a look at the jobs of the 12 disciples and what were their occupations and the family they came from. 

¿Quiénes son los 12 discípulos de Jesús y qué Job hicieron?

According to the Bible, when Jesus was starting His ministry, he hand-picked 12 disciples to work with him. Let us learn their names, the families they come from, and what they did for a living before Jesus’ call;

Pedro

Pedro, hijo de Jonás y también llamado Simón Pedro o Cefas (que significa roca), era el líder ydiscípulo más franco de Jesús. Su influencia entre los discípulos y en la iglesia primitiva fue tan grande que su nombre es el más mencionado entre los doce discípulos en el Nuevo Testamento. El apóstol Pedro fue uno de los discípulos que más tiempo pasó con Jesús; más como un círculo interno.

Peter has two books to his name (1st and 2nd Peter). He died as a martyr just like Jesus, but in his case, he requested they turn him upside down as a show of respect for Jesus. Peter was the only married disciple.

Peter’s source of livelihood before he answered the call to become a disciple was fishing. Jesus met him while he was fishing. 

Santiago el Mayor

James, son of Zebedee and Salome, and brother to John was another member of the inner circle of Jesus. Because of this closeness, he experienced special events such as the transfiguration on Mount Tabor and the miracle of raising Jairo’s daughter from the dead. 

James fue la primera persona en ser martirizada.King Herod beheaded him. 

James era un pescador de profesión, también fue un empleador de mano de obra en su tiempo.

John

Like James, his elder brother, John was also a son of Zebedee and Salome and the third member of Jesus’ inner circle. John has four books (1st, 2nd, and 3rd John and Revelation) in the Bible to his name. 

Él fue el único discípulo de Jesús enmorir de muerte natural, aunque una vez hubo un atentado contra su vida. La historia dice que John era intolerante y tenía untemperamento incontrolable.

Como Santiago y Pedro, Juan también era pescador.

Bartolomé

Bartholomew, también conocido como Nathaniel, nació en Talmai. Su padre vivía en Caná de Galilea. Su padre era en ese momento un rey en Gesur. En su primer encuentro con Jesús, Jesús lo llamó francamente israelita.

Bartolomé murió mártir después de ser golpeado, crucificado y decapitado. Antes de su desafortunada muerte, era undiligent researcher of the Scriptures. Se desconoce su ocupación, pero podría haber sido pescador desde que estaba con Andrés, Santiago y Juan cuando Jesús se les apareció después de su resurrección.

Phillip

Phillip de Bethesda, el primer discípulo en recibir la llamada de Jesús, fueun gran evangelista del evangelio. We see this in his forwardness to talk about Jesus to Nathaniel. As a symbol of respect for Jesus, he requested that his body be wrapped in papyrus instead of linen. 

Like most of the fold, we believe Phillip to be a fisher. Scholars also say Phillip that he was a man with a corazón cálido y personalidad pesimista. Su muerte fue en la horca.

Thomas Didymus

Thomas is one who lived in Galilee. Another name they called him was Didymus. He was first mentioned in the Scriptures for his doubting when he was told about Jesus, hence the name “doubting Thomas”. A diligent study of the gospel shows that although he could be a pessimist, he was devoted to the gospel and full of faith.

Jude

Jude, also known as Judas or Thaddeus, is the elder brother to James, and also a son of Alpheus. He once asked Jesus and from research, Jude believed in the ruling of the world by the chosen people.

Jude has quite a silent story in the bible, though he has a chapter in the New Testament the Bible. Jude died from the flechas disparadas hacia élen Ararat.

No se mencionó la descripción del trabajo de Jude.

Simon 

Simon the Zealot was a disciple of Jesus who originated in Canaan. The only information available about Simon is that he was a zealot. Zealots were a Jewish fanatic sect who had little belief in the struggles and suffering accompanied by the Christian faith. 

Con los antecedentes de Simon, podríamos decir que la descripción de su trabajo tenía inclinaciones políticas. Murió mártir.

Mateo

Matthew, also known as Levi as a son to Alpheus, was a controversial disciple of Jesus. His means of earning made him one of the controversial disciples of Jesus. Matthew, who lived in Capernaum died in Ethiopia at the hands of King Hyrcanus by a spear.

La ocupación de Mateo antes de la llamada de Jesús era la de recaudador de impuestos. Los recaudadores de impuestos eran el grupo de personas más odiado en esos días, ya que eran injustos. Sin embargo, Jesús lo encontró digno de seguir el curso del evangelio. Tiene un libro completo en el Nuevo Testamento a su nombre.

James el menor

James the Less is a son of Alpheus and a younger brother to Jude. Like his brother Jude, he also lived in Galilee. Scholars believe he is the writer of the book of James in the Bible.

También dicen que era un hombre confiery and strong character.

Su cuerpo estabacortado en pedazosdespués de su muerte.

No había una descripción clara del trabajo que hizo para ganar.

Judas Iscariote

Judas Iscariote, hijo de Simón, vivía en Keriot de Judá. Es un nombre popular en el evangelio de Jesús porque traicionó a Jesús por treinta piezas de plata a través de un beso. Aunque no hay rastro de cómo Judas recibió la llamada, dio tres años para seguir a Jesús.

Judas served as the treasurer during Jesus’ ministry on Earth. The weight of his betrayal was heavy on his shoulder to the point he killed himself. 

La muerte de Judas Iscariote provocó una vacante y hubo necesidad de un reemplazo. Y eligieron a Matías después de echar suertes entre él y José o Barrabás. Después de la cita con Matthias, hubo poca o ninguna mención de él. Los historiadores dicen que vivió hasta el 80 d.C.

Conclusion The Jobs of the 12 Disciples

Who are the 12 disciples and what were their occupations? The Lord Jesus had many followers during His earthly ministry, and many more have chosen to do so in the centuries following. As Jesus began to obtain followers, He selected twelve to follow Him in a closer way, who received personal teachings and explanations. He called them personally to Him.

The Bible provides no information on the professions of Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Thaddaeus, or James, the son of Alphaeus. It does provide information about Paul, who became an apostle after the death and resurrection of Jesus. He was a Pharisee and may have taught religion or worked in political office. During his missionary journeys, Paul supported himself as a tentmaker according to Acts 18:1; Acts 18:2; Acts 18:3.
