Joh 20:27 | MHM | STEP | v. 27 : Jesus invited Thomas to touch his hands and side, saying, “Stop doubting and believe.” Jesus knew what Thomas had said and showed him kindness instead of anger. He gave Thomas the proof he asked for, helping him to believe. Jesus turned to Thomas and invited him to touch the wounds in his hands and side, saying, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.” Jesus knew exactly what Thomas had said earlier and addressed his doubts directly. He was not angry with Thomas but gave him the evidence he needed to believe. This shows Jesus’ patience and understanding toward those who struggle with doubt.
