(1 Cor 2:8)
The T is symbol of the cross.
The Archons crucified 3 kind of souls:
- pneumatics (Christ)
- psychics (the Good Thief)
- hylics (the Evil Thief)
So you just proved that I'm right and you and your interpretation are wrong.
thanks for that. I wonder if the need of two witnesses (behind the introduction of two crucified thieves, about which we agree both, it seems) served to prove that Jesus died really and not only apparently, since, as you say, they "bear witness to his death".Joseph D.

And Gospel of Nicodemus:
And we saw two witnesses, whose bodies Jesus raised from the dead, who told us of many strange things which Jesus did among the dead, of which we have a written account in our hands.
The two crucified with Jesus bear witness to his death;
It's doubtful if it's supposed to be literal. After all, the two crucified with Jesus are still dead. So it's probably symbolic.thanks for that.

Why are they idiots?Hence, who introduced the 2 idiots, was a Judaizer in polemic against Docetists.
it is clearly supposed to be literal. The Judaizers had need of a Jesus "in the flesh". Only so he could be identified with the Jewish Christ. Again, very thanks for the great finding above.Joseph D.

it is called irony. I enjoy to insult the Gospel characters as "idiots" when I have occasion to do so.Why are they idiots?

There is only one witness we hear of and that is the centurion. If in your logic there is a two witnesses requirement, than following that same logic one witness is no witness, therefore Jesus did not die.
