Bhala wonke amagama abantu abakulesi sigaba abaphostoli bakaJesu abayishumi nambili, uhlu olunezinhlamvu.
Context:AmaVangeli amathathu e - Synoptic alandisa ngezimo abanye babafundi abakhethwa kuzo, uMathewu uchaza kuphela ukuqoqwa kukaSimoni, u - Andreya, uJakobe, noJohane.  Nakuba uJesu abacela isikhashana ukuba bahlanganyele naye, bonke bachazwa njengabavuma ngokushesha futhi bashiya amanetha abo ukuze bahambe naye. Ukuvuma kwabo ngokushesha kuye kwabhekwa njengesibonelo samandla aphezulu, nakuba lokhu kungashiwo embhalweni. Enye incazelo iwukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi abanye babafundi babezwe ngoJesu ngaphambili, njengoba kusho iVangeli likaJohane, elithi u-Andreya wayengumfundi kaJohane uMbhapathizi, nokuthi yena nomfowabo baqala ukulandela uJesu ngokushesha nje ngemva kokuba uJesu ebhapathiziwe.  UMathewu uchaza uJesu ehlangana noJakobe noJohane, nabo ababengabadobi nabafowabo, ngokushesha nje ngemva kokuqasha uSimoni noAndreya. UMathewu noMarku bathi uJakobe noJohane babengamadodana kaZebedewu. ULuka unezela kulokho okushiwo uMathewu noMarku ngokuthi uJakobe noJohane basebenza noSimoni no-Andreya. UMathewu uthi ngesikhathi behlangana noJesu, uJakobe noJohane babelungisa amanetha abo, kodwa bajoyina uJesu ngaphandle kokungabaza.  Lokhu kufana nokulandisa kukaMarku noLuka, kodwa uMathewu usikisela ukuthi amadoda nawo amshiya uyise (ngoba ukhona esikebheni abashiya ngemuva kwabo), futhi uCarter unomuzwa wokuthi lokhu kufanele kuhunyushwe ukuthi kusho ukuthi umbono kaMathewu ngoJesu ungomunye womuntu owenqaba isakhiwo sobukhokho bendabuko somphakathi, lapho ubaba ayenegunya phezu kwezingane zakhe; kodwa-ke, izazi eziningi zivele ziyihumushe ngokuthi uMathewu wayehlose ukuthi laba ababili babonwe njengabanikezelwe kakhulu kunabanye, noma ukuthi uJesu wayelindele ukufika okuseduze kombuso.  AmaVangeli Ahlangene aqhubeka achaza ukuthi kamuva enkonzweni kaJesu waphawula umthelisi esakhiweni sakhe. Umthelisi, obizwa ngokuthi uMathewu kuMathewu 9:9, noLevi kuMarku 2:14 nakuLuka 5:27, ucelwa uJesu ukuba abe ngomunye wabafundi bakhe. UMathewu/uLevi kuthiwa wamukela futhi wabe esemema uJesu ukuba adle nabangane bakhe. Abathelisi babebhekwa njengabantu ababi emphakathini wamaJuda, futhi kuchazwa ukuthi abaFarisi babuza uJesu ukuthi kungani edla nabantu abanjalo abanedumela elibi. Impendulo uJesu ayinikeza manje yaziwa kahle: "Abaphilile abamdingi udokotela, kodwa abagulayo bayamdinga. Kangizanga ukubiza abalungileyo, kodwa izoni zize ekuphendukeni.
