Now I am presenting to you another contradiction and I hope you will discuss it truthfully. * Uptil now, i.e., 1972, many years after that letter no reply has been received. Abuse by the Thieves: Matthew writes at the end of the story of the crucifixion of Christ: "Then were there two thieves crucified with him, . . . And they that passed by reviled him, . . . Likewise also the chief priests mock- ing him, with the scribes and elders, said, He saved others; himself he cannot save ...
The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth" (Matthew, 27:38-44). . But Luke says that only one of the thieves abused him, while the other admonished him for that bad behaviour:- "And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?" (Luke, 23:39-40). I request you to explain this contradiction.
