An apostle (/əˈpɒsəl/), in its literal sense, is an emissary, from Ancient Greek ἀπόστολος (apóstolos), literally "one who is sent off", from the verb ἀποστέλλειν (apostéllein), "to send off". The purpose of such sending off is usually to convey a message, and thus "messenger" is a common alternative translation; other common translations include "ambassador" and "envoy". The term in Ancient Greek also has other related meanings.

  • Apostel är ett ord som vanligen i första hand åsyftar tolv av Jesu lärjungar samt Paulus, och betyder i det sammanhanget Guds utsände. Ibland används det som beteckning för utsända missionärer som lyckats omvända ett land till kristendomen. Rollen som Guds utsände förekommer också som beskrivning av profeterna i Gamla Testamentet.
