- Mark 6:30 Apostles: this word occurs in Mark only here; it is also found in some manuscripts in Mk 3:14. The apostles were authorized representatives of Jesus, and in this sense it is used in the New Testament of the Twelve (Mk 3:14) and also of Paul (Rom 1:1). In a broader sense it is applied to a larger group including Barnabas (Acts 14:14), James, “brother of the Lord” (Gal 1:19), and possibly Andronicus and Junia (Rom 16:7). See also note on Mk 3:13-19.
