"When the apostles met after Jesus had risen,
How much the fact of his doubting was occasioned and helped by
the fact of his former absence I cannot say; but it still looks highly probable that had he been there at the first, he would have enjoyed the same experience as the other ten, and would have been able to say as they did, “We have seen the Lord.” John 20:25."
Charles Spurgeon
*Thomas was the only disciple absent out of the eleven;
on the second time Thomas was there,
*and he was the only disciple doubting out of the eleven.
