St. Thomas was a Jew, called to be one of the twelve Apostles. He was a dedicated but impetuous follower of Christ. When Jesus said He was returning to Judea to visit His sick friend Lazarus, Thomas immediately exhorted the other Apostles to accompany Him on the trip which involved certain danger and possible death because of the mounting hostility of the authorities.

Thomas Known in Syriac tradition as Judas Thomas, St. Thomas is remembered now as the doubter, in spite of his declaration of faith and presumed martyrdom. A native of Galilee, Thomas is listed among the Twelve, with the surname Didymus, although his calling is not described. Didymus, which means twin, seems to be more metaphoric than literal; the name suggests the mutability of his faith and may bespeak a double-mindedness. What happened to him after the Pentecost is unknown, although he is said to have been martyred with a spear c. 72 at Calamina, a place no scholar has identified.

Little is recorded of St.Thomas the Apostle, nevertheless thanks to the fourth Gospel his personality is clearer to us than that of some others of the Twelve. His name occurs in all the lists of the Synoptists (Matthew 10:3; Mark 3:18; Luke 6, cf. Acts 1:13), but in St.John he plays a distinctive part.
