what was the names of the 2 robbers crucified with jesus?

Answer 1

Gestas and Dismas

Saint Dismas (sometimes spelled Dysmas or only Dimas, or even Dumas), also known as the Good Thief, is the apocryphal name given to one of the thieves who was crucified alongside Christ according to the Gospel of Luke 23:39-43:

Gestas, also spelled Gesmas, is the apocryphal name (first appearing in the Gospel of Nicodemus) given to one of the two thieves who was crucified alongside Jesus. According to legend, Gestas taunted Jesus about not saving himself, while Dismas asked for mercy. Dismas was saved, and Gestas was not. The apocryphal Arabic Infancy Gospel refers to Gestas and Dismas as Dumachus and Titus, respectively.

Answer 2

Christ's two Commandments: 1. Love God completely, and 2. Love your fellow man as yourself. 17.John 12:49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak You seek to make a difference between the Words of God in the Old Testament and the Words of Jesus in the new, but Jesus said plainly for all to understand that He brought a message from God and it was not his own. In keeping the two commands of God given by Jesus you will keep all ten why is that hard to see? If you love your fellow man as yourself you will not lust after his wife or any thing that he has so you won't steal from him, so just follow this through and you will find yourself keeping and ten commands. God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow He does not change, He just simplified it for those who complained about ten commandments.

Answer 3

Dismas and Gestas were the names of the two thieves crucified with Jesus. These were the names accorded to them in the 12th century.

Answer 4

The Robber who was freed was Barabas (?spelling) the other as far as I know is unnamed.

About all we know about these events is revealed in Lukes account in the following verses:

Luke 23:32-43 (NAS95)
32* ¶ Two others also, who were criminals, were being led away to be put to death with Him. 33* When they came to the place called The Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left. 34* But Jesus was saying, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing." And they cast lots, dividing up His garments among themselves. 35* And the people stood by, looking on. And even the rulers were sneering at Him, saying, "He saved others; let Him save Himself if this is the Christ of God, His Chosen One." 36* The soldiers also mocked Him, coming up to Him, offering Him sour wine, 37 and saying, "If You are the King of the Jews, save Yourself!" 38* Now there was also an inscription above Him, "THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS." 39* One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, "Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us!" 40* But the other answered, and rebuking him said, "Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 "And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving what we deserve for our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong." 42* And he was saying, "Jesus, remember me when You come in Your kingdom!" 43* And He said to him, "Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise."

Also consider the context of the following verses:

Mark 15:27
"They crucified two robbers with Him, one on His right and one on His left."

Matt 27:38
"At that time two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and one on the left."

Matt 27:44
"The robbers who had been crucified with Him were also insulting Him with the same words."

Apparently they were guilty of "robbery." Luke simply states that they were "criminals." The Greek word in Luke means "evil doer." They have often been referred to as thief's, but "robbery" is a much more serious crime then "theft." It is evident that the two were guilty of serious crimes.

It is not revealed in Scripture on which side the one was located that expressed faith in Christ. It seems apparent from Matt. 27:44 that both robbers at first were insulting Jesus, and then one repented and confessed faith.

This is all we can know about the circumstances by reading the bible

Answer 5

Actual names unknown. No early records of their names exist.

Tradition calls them Gestas and Dismas, but is hard to date.

Note about references to a "Narrative of Joseph of Arimathea". Even the site where it was found classes it as apocryphal, undated but late. While I'm fairly open with texts classed as "apocrypha" by the church, as many have been put in that category for political reasons, because they supported theses not compatible with official church stance, as a way to relegate them in the outer darkness of worthless documents, I fear that this one was properly set there, due to obvious lateness and lack of evidence for its being authentic. It does match the tradition, but should not be taken as a real historic document.
