Jesus Chooses His Apostles
The inside story of the 'Fishers of Men'
Selects Apostles |
These twelve men represented many different types of human temperament, and they had not been made alike by schooling.
When your records refer to these messengers of the kingdom as being “ignorant and unlearned,” it was intended to convey the idea that they were laymen, unlearned in the lore of the rabbis and untrained in the methods of rabbinical interpretation of the Scriptures. They were lacking in so-called higher education. In modern times they would certainly be considered uneducated, and in some circles of society even uncultured.
