  2. Jan 4, 2022 · Matthew (also called Levi) was called separately, sometime after the first six (Matthew 9:9–13; Mark 2:13–17; Luke 5:27–32). The Bible does not describe the calling of the other five disciples. Jesus had many people following Him early on in His ministry.

  3. The calling of the disciples is a key episode in the life of Jesus in the New Testament. [2][3] It appears in Matthew 4:1822, Mark 1:16-20 and Luke 5:1–11 on the Sea of Galilee.

  7. Jesus had two kinds of disciples—a larger and a smaller group.

The smaller group of committed disciples traveled with Him and dedicated their lives full-time to being His pupils.

  8. Peter's calling is in all of the gospels. In Luke, Jesus was tempted in chapter 4. Afterward, in chapter 5 (coinciding with the chronology in John 1), he calls Peter as a disciple (his calling is paralleled in Matt 4 and Mark 1).
