In the New Testament, it is most commonly associated with the followers of Jesus Christ. The Greek word for disciple, "mathētēs," appears frequently in the Gospels and Acts, signifying those who adhered to Jesus' teachings and mission.<br><br><b>The Twelve Disciples</b><br><br>The most prominent group of disciples in the New Testament are the Twelve Apostles, personally chosen by Jesus to be His closest followers and to carry on His work after His ascension. The names of the Twelve are listed in several passages, including <a href="/matthew/10-2.htm">Matthew 10:2-4</a>, <a href="/mark/3-16.htm">Mark 3:16-19</a>, and <a href="/luke/6-13.htm">Luke 6:13-16</a>. They include Peter, James, John, Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who later betrayed Jesus.<br><br><b>Role and Mission</b><br><br>The role of the disciples was multifaceted. They were called to learn from Jesus, to witness His miracles, and to understand His teachings. In <a href="/matthew/28-19.htm">Matthew 28:19-20</a>, often referred to as the Great Commission, Jesus commands His disciples: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you." This directive underscores the disciples' mission to spread the Gospel and establish the early Church.<br><br><b>Characteristics of Discipleship</b><br><br>Discipleship in the New Testament is characterized by several key elements:<br><br>1. <b>Commitment</b>: Disciples are called to a life of total commitment to Jesus. In <a href="/luke/9-23.htm">Luke 9:23</a>, Jesus states, "If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me."<br><br>2. <b>Learning and Obedience</b>: Disciples are learners who are expected to grow in understanding and obedience to Jesus' teachings. <a href="/john/8-31.htm">John 8:31-32</a> records Jesus saying, "If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."<br><br>3. <b>Love and Service</b>: A defining mark of discipleship is love for one another. In <a href="/john/13-34.htm">John 13:34-35</a>, Jesus commands, "A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another."<br><br>4. <b>Bearing Fruit</b>: Disciples are expected to bear spiritual fruit as evidence of their faith. In <a href="/john/15-8.htm">John 15:8</a>, Jesus says, "This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, proving yourselves to be My disciples."<br><br><b>Broader Use of the Term</b><br><br>While the Twelve Apostles are the most well-known disciples, the term "disciple" is also used more broadly in the New Testament to refer to other followers of Jesus. For instance, in <a href="/acts/6.htm">Acts 6:1</a>, the term is used to describe the growing number of believers in the early Church: "In those days, as the disciples were increasing in number, the Grecian Jews began to grumble against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food."<br><br><b>Discipleship Beyond the New Testament</b><br><br>The concept of discipleship extends beyond the New Testament era, as Christians throughout history have sought to follow Jesus' teachings and live according to His example. The call to discipleship remains central to the Christian faith, emphasizing a life of devotion, learning, and service in the name of Christ.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">SEVENTY DISCIPLES</span><p>The account of the designation and mission of these is found only in Luke 10. Some have therefore sought to maintain that we have here only a confused variant of the appointment of the Twelve; but this is impossible in the light of Luke's account of the Twelve in chapter 9.<br><br>The documents vary as between the numbers seventy and seventy-two, so that it is impossible to determine which is the correct reading; and internal evidence does not help at all in this case. There is nothing in the function or circumstances to indicate any reason for the specific number.<br><br>Commentators have sought parallels in the seventy elders chosen to assist Moses (<a href="/nasb/numbers/11.htm">Numbers 11</a>) and suppose that Jesus was incidentally indicating Himself as the "prophet like unto Moses" whom God would raise up.<br><br>Again, the Jews popularly reckoned the "number of the nations of the earth" at seventy (compare <a href="/nasb/genesis/10.htm">Genesis 10</a>), and some have supposed Jesus to be thus indicating that His gospel is universal. Attention is called to the fact that the Seventy are not forbidden to go to Gentiles and that their commission probably included Peraea, where many Gentiles were to be found. Some, again, have supposed that Jesus had in mind the Jewish Sanhedrin, composed of seventy (or seventy-two), and that the appointment of a like number to extend the work of His kingdom was a parabolic recognition that as the Jews were officially rejecting Him, so He was rejecting them as agents for the work of the kingdom. It is impossible to speak with any certainty as to any of these suggestions. It is to be noted that there is the same confusion between the numbers seventy and seventy-two in all four instances, as also in the tradition as to the number of translators of the Septuagint.<br><br>Inasmuch as no further mention is made of these workers, it is to be understood that they were appointed for a temporary ministry. Tradition names several of them and identifies them with disciples active after Pentecost. While it is probable that some of these were witnesses later, the tradition is worthless in details. The mission of these and the reason assigned for their appointment are essentially the same as in the case of the Twelve. Jesus is now completing His last popular campaign in preaching and introducing the kingdom of heaven. The employing of these in this service is in line with the permanent ideal of Christianity, which makes no distinction between the "laymen" and the "clergy" in responsibility and service. Jesus was perhaps employing all whose experience and sympathy made them fit for work in the harvest that was so plenteous while the laborers were few. He found seventy such now as He would find a hundred and twenty such after His ascension (<a href="/acts/1-15.htm">Acts 1:15</a>).<br><br>William Owen Carver<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/256b.htm"><span class="l">256b.
