    CONTENTS

    In this Chapter we have the call of the Apostles, and Christ's mission given to them, to work miracles, and preach the Gospel.

    (Matthew 10:1) "And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease."

    We have here the Lord Jesus calling his Apostles. Their number twelve. Perhaps in allusion to the twelve tribes of Israel. The Church is. represented by twelve stars. Revelation 12:1. And the twelve foundations of the New Jerusalem are not without the same signification. Revelation 11:12-66
