  4. Unless you are referring to the Biblical Kind, the 12 apostles are rock formations, know as sea stacks which can be found in Victoria along the Great Ocean Road. They are not named individually they are called collectively the 12 apostles as there were originally 12 formations left standing in the Ocean following erosion by the sea. Check the site below for a picture.

  5. 1. Peter: Renamed by Jesus, his original name was Simon (Mark 3:16); was a fisherman from the Bethsaida "of Galilee" (John 1:44, cf. John 12:21). Also known as Simon bar Jonah, Simon bar Jochanan (Aram.), Cephas (Aram.), and Simon Peter.

       2. James, son of Zebedee: The brother of John.

       3. John: The brother of James. Jesus named both of them Bo-aner'ges, which means "sons of thunder".(Mark 3:17)

       4. Andrew: The brother of Simon/Peter, a Bethsaida fisherman, and a former disciple of John the Baptist.

       5. Philip: From the Bethsaida of Galilee (John 1:44, John 12:21)

       6. Bartholomew, son of Talemai: It has been suggested that he is the same person as Nathanael, who is mentioned in John 1:45-51.

       7. Matthew: The tax collector.

       8. Thomas: Also known as Judas Thomas Didymus - Aramaic T'oma' = twin, and Greek Didymous = twin.

       9. James, son of Alphaeus: Generally identified with "James the Less", and also identified by Roman Catholics with "James the Just". [9]

      10. Thaddeus: In some manuscripts of Matthew, the name "Lebbaeus" occurs in this place. Thaddeus is traditionally identified with Jude; see below.

      11. Simon the Cananean: Some have identified him with Simeon of Jerusalem. [10]

      12. Judas Iscariot: The disciple who later betrayed Jesus. (Mark 3:19) The name Iscariot may refer to the Judaean towns of Kerioth or to the sicarii (Jewish nationalist insurrectionists), or to Issachar. Also referred to as "Judas, the son of Simon" (John 6:71 and John 13:26). He was replaced as an apostle shortly after Jesus' resurrection by Matthias.

  6. If you are asking "who WERE the 12 Apostles?", then I suggest you check out a fairly well known book called The Bible.

    If you are asking "Where ARE the 12 apostles?", then you can find the remainder of them on The Great Ocean Road, in the state of Victoria.  While there were originally more of these rock formations off the coast, they are subject to erosion by wind and sea, and so some have collapsed back into the ocean.  Still an amazing sight and a great part of the scenic trip that is the Great Ocean Road.

    Take the trip, it's worth it!
