Luke 6:12-19

12Now at this time Jesus went off to the mountain to pray, and He spent the whole night in prayer to God.

13When day came, He called His disciples and selected twelve of them, whom He also named apostles (special messengers, personally chosen representatives):

14Simon, whom He also named Peter, and his brother Andrew; and [the brothers] James and John; and Philip, and Bartholomew [also called Nathanael];

15and Matthew (Levi, the tax collector) and Thomas; and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot;

16Judas [also called Thaddaeus] the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor [to the Lord].

17Then Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place; and there was a large crowd of His disciples, and a vast multitude of people from all over Judea and Jerusalem and the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon,

18who had come to listen to Him and to be healed of their diseases. Even those who were troubled by unclean spirits (demons) were being healed.

19All the people were trying to touch Him, because [healing] power was coming from Him and healing them all.
