Profile
One of the thieves crucified with Jesus, the other being traditionally known as Gestas; Dismas is the Good Thief, theone who rebuked the other, and asked for Christ’s blessing.
An old legend from an Arabic infancy gospel says thatwhen the Holy Family were running to Egypt, they were set upon by a band of thieves, including Dismas and Gestas. One of the highwaymen realized there was something different, somethingspecial about them, and ordered his fellow bandits to leave them alone; this thief was the young Dismas.
