Luke 23:39-43

39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: "Aren't you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!"

40 But the other criminal rebuked him. "Don't you fear God," he said, "since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong."

42 Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[d]"

43 Jesus answered him, "Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise."

Answer 3

A:In Mark's Gospel, the original New Testament gospel, the two thieves say nothing - they are just there alongside Jesus.

In Matthew's Gospel, the two thievs reviled Jesus, just like the mob that watched on (Matthew 27:44): "The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth. "

In Luke's Gospel, only one of the malefactors reviled Jesus (Luke 23:39): "And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us." The other thief repented (Luke 23:40-42): "But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom."

The reason for this difference is simply that Mark's Gospel gave the two later evangelists no guidance as to what the thieves would have said. They copied from Mark, both unaware of how the other would add to the original. The author of Matthew chose to emphasise the humiliation of Jesus, and so had both thieves revile Jesus. The author of Luke chose to show that those who repent, even a crucified thief would receive salvation.
