### [Read the passage.](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Lk6.12-19)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Jesus had many disciples following Him, who listened to His teaching wherever
|
|||
|
|
He went. After a night spent in prayer, He chooses twelve men to be apostles,
|
|||
|
|
or messengers. These would be sent out to preach the good news of God's kingdom
|
|||
|
|
to the towns and vilages, and be the backbone of Jesus's ministry after He
|
|||
|
|
left.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Once Jesus and the apostles come down from the mountain, He preaches to all His
|
|||
|
|
disciples and the very large crowd that is following them. By this point, Jesus
|
|||
|
|
is famous not only among the Jewish provinces, but also in the Gentile areas of
|
|||
|
|
Tyre and Sidon, which are along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. They want
|
|||
|
|
to hear Him speak and also be healed of their diseases.
