De Halvfjerds Disciple

De Halvfjerds disciple eller Tooghalvfjerds disciple var [toog]halvfjerds personer, som Jesus ifølge Lukasevangeliet, der også er det eneste evangelium hvor de optræder, sendte ud for at prædike.

I vestlige traditioner kaldes de ofte disciple,[1] mens man i østkirken ofte bruger ordet “apostel” om dem.[2]

  1. ^ Catholic Encyclopedia: Disciple Arkiveret 24. januar 2018 hos Wayback Machine: "The disciples, in this disciples, in this context, are not the crowds of believers who flocked around Christ, but a smaller body of His followers. They are commonly identified with the seventy-two (seventy, according to the received Greek text, although several Greek manuscripts mention seventy-two, as does the Vulgate) referred to as having been chosen by Jesus. The names of these disciples are given in several lists (Chronicon Paschale, and Pseudo-Dorotheus in Migne, P.G., XCII, 521–524; 543–545; 1061–1065); but these lists are unfortunately worthless."
