    Barnabas (Greek Βαρνάβας), who according to Acts 4.36 EU was actually called Joseph (according to some of Joseph's manuscripts), was an apostle of early Christianity, but was not part of the innermost circle of the "twelve" whom Jesus of Nazareth lived around him had formed. According to the book of Acts, he came from the Jewish diaspora community in Cyprus and belonged to the priestly Israelite tribe of the Levites. He is one of the founding figures and leaders of the Christian community of Antioch and is considered the teacher of Paul of Tarsus, who mentions him several times in his letters (1 Corinthians, Galatians). Barnabas, together with Paul, undertook fundamental mission trips for the development of the Christian mission concept and is one of the participants in the Apostle Council.
