St. Thomas the Apostle
Little is recorded of St. Thomas the Apostle, nevertheless thanks to the
fourth Gospel his personality is clearer to us than that of some others of the
Twelve. His name occurs in all the lists of the Synoptists (Matthew 10:3; Mark
3:18; Luke 6, cf. Acts 1:13), but in St. John he plays a distinctive part.
First, when Jesus announced His intention of returning to Judea to visit
Lazarus, "Thomas" who is called Didymus [the twin], said to his
fellow disciples: "Let us also go, that we may die with him" (John
11:16). Again it was St. Thomas who during the discourse before the Last Supper
raised an objection: "Thomas saith to him: Lord, we know not whither
thou goest; and how can we know the way?" (John 14:5). But more
especially St. Thomas is remembered for his incredulity when the other Apostles
announced Christ's Resurrection to him: "Except I shall see in his hands
the print of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and put
my hand into his side, I will not believe" (John 20:25); but eight days
later he made his act of faith, drawing down the rebuke of Jesus: "Because
thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed; blessed are they that have not
seen, and have believed" (John 20:29). - above
