# Appoint
The words “appoint” and “appointed” are used to talk about choosing someone. People can be chosen to do a certain task. They can also be chosen to have a certain role or position. For example, Jesus appointed twelve men to be his disciples. That is, Jesus chose them to be his disciples (see: Mark 3:14-19; see also: Luke 10:1; Acts 13:47; Romans 4:17; 1 Corinthians 12:28).
The word “appoint” can also be used to talk about someone appointing a time. That is, someone can choose a time for something to happen (see: Genesis 18:14; Joshua 11:5; Daniel 8:19; 11:29, 35).
The word “appoint” can also be used to talk about choosing someone to receive something. For example, a person who was appointed to eternal life is someone who was chosen to receive eternal life (see: Acts 13:48; see also: 1 Thessalonians 5:9).
