ewwwfound it, john 20,24-28. this is from 'the message', one of the most entertaining of the evangelical bibles because the guy's basically transliterated the king james bible into something close to spot the dog.
But Thomas, sometimes called the Twin, one of the Twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples told him, 'We saw the Master.'
But he said, 'Unless I see the nail holes in his hands, put my finger in the nail holes, and stick my hand in his side, I won't believe it.'
Eight days later, his disciples were again in the room. This time Thomas was with them. Jesus came through the locked doors, stood among them, and said, 'Peace to you.'
Then he focused his attention on Thomas. 'Take your finger and examine my hands. Take your hand and stick it in my side. Don't be unbelieving. Believe.'
Thomas said, 'My Master! My God!'
