All of the apostles of Jesus were Galileans except for Judas Iscariot, who, presumably, was a Judean (to some Iscariot meant literally isqueriot, "of Kerioth" a southern district of Judah), while others interpret it as "of Issachar".
The only death of the other apostles recorded in the Bible is that of James. The circumstances of the deaths of the other apostles can only be known based on church traditions, so we shouldn't give much credence to any of the other accounts.
The tradition of the church most commonly accepted concerning the death of an apostle, is that of the apostle Peter who was crucified upside down, in Rome, in fulfillment of the prophecy of Jesus (John 21:18).
How can the followers of Jesus be important to the purpose of the Organization? "Truly I say" I understand your requests even less. |
