1 | Were there 2 or 4 men hung on the cross | Matt 27:38 | prayon | 165343 | ||
Greetings jalanlambert, There were 2 men crucified with Jesus. According to Websters Dictionary a malefactor is "one who commits a crime; one guilty of violating the laws, in such a manner as to subject him to public prosecution and punishment, particularly to capital punishment; a criminal." Malefactor therefore is interchangable with thieves. According to different translations the words robber and criminal are also used. Hope this answers your question. prayon |

Both men were sinners. However, during the time that they hung there one of the thieves learned the truth and repented. He is the one who then rebuked the other for his words. (Luke 23:39-40). It was then that Jesus told the man that today he would be with Him in paradise (v.43). prayon | ||||||
