I do not know or have proven tested true resources to locate this information -

but it may help answer the question on another thread today - how long did it take the thief or malefactor who was crucified with Jesus to 'change' his mind ? (repent) ....

One quick search turned up this odd? note >>>
"A careful reading of the biblical text

shows that the two criminals were crucified at the same time Jesus was,

but the two robbers were crucified later in the day.

The criminals were led away to be crucified with Jesus and were immediately crucified next to him. Luke 23:32 and 33 (ESV)"

Another thing brought up years past was how old was the thief who repented ? Was he always a thief, or had he been immersed some year before he became a thief? (and "backslid"?) ... Anything at all to show that he was not immersed ?

Another thing - the centurion present who said 'surely this was the son of God' - was he mentioned before or after that day ?
Did he make a sudden 'change of mind' / repentance/

or did he already before then know who Jesus was, and confirmed it in his testimony now known for two thousand years around the world ?
