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
Two criminals were crucified with Jesus on either side of him, as mentioned in the Bible.
The day Jesus was crucified is known as Good Friday. It is observed by Christians as the day of Jesus Christ's crucifixion and death.
There was no pilot who crucified Jesus. The man responsible for sentencing Jesus to his crucifixion was the Roman governor of Judea Pontius Pilate. Although he did not believe that Jesus deserved to be crucified, the people demanded it and he complied. However, after he allowed it, he washed his hands, symbolizing that he did not want to be acknowledged as the man responsible for Jesus' death.
There was a thief on each side of Jesus. These two were also being crucified for stealing, but Jesus hadn't done anything to deserve crucifixion.
He was on Jesus's left, but if you were facing the hill, he was on the right.

It was necessary.
Matthew 27:38 - Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left. [NKJV]The NKJV says in verse 38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand and another on the left.
This sentence was said by Jesus when He was Crucified and it was told to the thief crucified beside Him (on His right).It means that after the death of Jesus and the death of the thief crucified in His right,this thief will be with Jesus in the paradise as it is the place to which christians,good Christians, go after their death as a place to wait before the last day and after this day,good people will go from the paradise to the Eternal life with Jesus in the Heavens.Jesus said this to the thief crucified to His right because he accepted Jesus as a God and a Savior...
The Bible gives no names to the two men who were crucified with Jesus. The Bible does give a little information on both of the men.The first man asked Jesus, "If you are who you claim that you are. Why don't you free yourself and us?"The second man told the first man, "Have you have no fear of God? This man did nothing wrong. We deserve to die for our crimes."Then, the second man on his cross, requested of Jesus, "Please remember me when you enter into you Kingdom."Jesus replied to the second man, "From this day, you shall be with me in paradise."Jesus was crucified between two robbers (thieves), one on the right and another on the left.Good Answer! But You left out that the thief on the right listened to what Jesus had to say and he asked if He was really The Messiah and Jesus answered yes, the man on the left said to the man on the right, don't listen to this it is a lie, but the man on the right didn't listen and accepted Jesus right then and Jesus said to him, you will be with Me in paradise!I like to give people a little more information than they ask for! sorry!
