In the accounts in the Gospel of Mark and Gospel of Matthew, these two join the crowd in mocking Jesus. The Gospel of Luke version, however, describes one as asking Jesus to "remember him" when Jesus "came into" his kingdom. The other, known from this account as the Impenitent thief, asks Jesus why he cannot save himself. He is given the name "Dismas" in the Gospel of Nicodemus and, though not formally canonized by the Catholic Church, is venerated in some Catholic traditions as "St. Dismas" 〔 (sometimes "Dysmas", or, in Spanish and Portuguese, "Dimas"). Other traditions have bestowed other names: * In the Arabic First Infancy Gospel, he is called "Titus" (and the impenitent thief "Dumachus"). * In Coptic Orthodox tradition, he is named "Demas" by the ''Narrative of Joseph of Arimathea''. * In the Codex Colbertinus, he is named "Zoatham". * In Russian Orthodox tradition, he is named "Rakh".〔Renate Gerstenlauer, ''The Rakh Icon: Discovery of its True Identity'', Legat Verlag, 2009 (ISBN 978-3932942358).
