It's an interesting complaint you have here, given the other discussion on whether and how God intervenes.

You would prefer, I assume, the Lord appear in his glory to the prophet each time a new apostle is to be called, and designate him as someone the prophet has never met? It seems easier (not to mention more common) for the Lord to bring his prophet into touch with future apostles naturally, as he does in guiding our daily lives.

A pattern for all of us, to be sure.
