The commission is due to the Father who tried to reconcile the world with himself by sending his Son to the mankind which became alienated from him. Jesus’ calling is not an invitation to a hermetically isolated community for a few elected Jews, who will later enjoy the blessings of their master’s proximity and the advantages of the security of his presence. Jesus’ calling viewed the commission. The way Jesus carried out his ministry of preaching and healing with the authority he received from God he sends his disciples to drive out demons and to heal diseases giving them the same authority and power. Service primarily means preaching the gospel. One of the aims of the appointment is preaching the gospel, which task the disciples fulfil obediently. Only Mark mentions the subject of preaching: the repentance. In the gospel of Mark the disciples do not proclaim the kingdom of God because they do not understand it yet, this is why they preach only about repentance so far. However, in the gospel of Matthew they preach about the coming kingdom of heaven. The apostles do not teach at Matthew, instead they are going to teach and explain the commandments only. Matthew makes a certain distinction between the verbs ‘to preach’ and ‘to teach’. Jesus never does preach to the disciples but he does always teach them. Ulrich Luz points to the fact that in the usage of Matthew the two verbs sometimes appear side by side. That is why their distinction remains an open question.
Keywords: mission, preaching, healing, sending, disciples.
