Acts 1
Christ instructed His apostles to remain in Jerusalem until they received the gift of the Holy Ghost that He had promised them. This they received about ten days after His final recorded departure from among them.
The lot feel upon Matthias but that doesn’t mean that Joseph Justus was unworthy to be an apostle, only that he wasn’t chosen at that time. It is possible that he might have been chosen later at the death of another of the apostles. (I’m not sure if any other apostles were ever chosen in that dispensation.)
