A:
It is in Luke's Gospel that Jesus spoke to one of the criminals. Luke says that one of the malefactors mocked Jesus, while the other repented, saying to Jesus, "Lord remember me in paradise," to which Jesus said unto him, "Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise."
Matthew's Gospel says both thieves mocked Jesus - (Matthew 27:44): "They cast the same in his teeth." There is no suggestion that Jesus spoke to either of them, and no likelihood that Jesus would have promised he would be in paradise. Luke's is the theologically most important account and thus the account most Christians prefer.
Mark's Gospel, the first account to be written, simply says (Mark 15:27-28) that Jesus was crucified between two thieves, one on his left hand and one on his right hand, so that the scripture be fulfilled as Jesus was numbered among the transgressors. John's Gospel does not tell us that anything was said between Jesus and the criminals.
Do you mean who were the men beside Jesus on the cross, or the men to put Jesus on the cross
A:In the three synoptic gospels, Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane. He suffered alone and in agony, asking God that, if possible, he take this cup (his destiny to be crucified) away. In the Gospels of Matthew and Mark, his last words on the cross, when he finally realised that God had not heard his prayers in the garden, were, "My God. My God. Why hast thou forsaken me?" Luke's Gospel has the prayer in the Garden, but not Jesus' later realisation that God had forsaken him.For theological reasons, John's Gospel does not have the unanswered prayer in the Garden, rather a triumphant prayer before reaching the Garden.
Jesus was placed in the middle on the cross as a way to highlight his importance and significance among the other criminals being crucified. It also symbolizes his role as the central figure in Christianity, being seen as the savior and mediator between humanity and God.
There was not a fourth cross at golgotha, but only three. Jesus was on the cross in the middle. Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left. Matt 27,38 According to some early writings, the names of the two crucified with Jesus were Dysmas and Gistas. His name was Gistas. And he that was crucified on the right, Dysmas by name, reproved that robber, saying: O wretched and miserable man, dost thou not fear God? Apocrypha Gospel Infancy Of Nicodemus 2 10,28
