Thomas the Apostle

Christian missionary

10 CE to 90 CE

Thomas the Apostle, also called Doubting Thomas or Didymus (meaning "Twin," as does "Thomas" in Aramaic") is one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus.

He is best known for questioning Jesus' resurrection when first told of it, then proclaiming "My Lord and my God" on seeing Jesus in John 20:28.

He was perhaps the only Apostle who went outside the Roman Empire to preach the Gospel.

He is also believed to have crossed the largest area, which includes the Parthian Empire and India.
