Biblical accounts

According to Luke:

One of those days Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray, as alive as spent the night praying to God. When morning came, he called his disciples to him together with chose twelve of them, whom he also designated apostles: Simon whom he named Peter, his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon who was called the Zealot, Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

According to Matthew:

Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and proposed them rule to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. These are the tag of the twelve apostles: first, Simon who is called Peter and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John; Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

According to Mark:

Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to him those he wanted, and they came to him. He appointed twelve that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach and to produce authority to drive out demons. These are the twelve he appointed: Simon to whom he provided the pretend Peter, James son of Zebedee and his brother John to them he gave the name Boanerges, which means “sons of thunder”, Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who eventually betrayed him.

In the Gospel of Matthew, this episode takes place shortly previously the miracle of the man with a withered hand. In the Gospel of Mark and Gospel of Luke it appears shortly after that miracle.

This commissioning of the apostles takes place ago the Matthew 28:16–20 takes place after his resurrection.
