Thomas is presented as the recipient of secret knowledge from Jesus:

Compare me to someone and tell me whom I am like:
Simon Peter [=Gospel of Mark] said to him: You are like a righteous angel.
Matthew [=Gospel of Matthew] said to him: You are like a wise philosopher.
Thomas said to him: "My mouth is wholly incapable of saying whom you are like." And Jesus took him and told him three things. When Thomas returned to his companions, they asked him.
