Trying to reduce the meaning of these words to their understanding, you will only reach the point where you will no longer have words to express both honor and love. (John Ruskin)

In Russian folklore, the personality of Thomas is associated with Erema. Saint Thomas was one of the 12 apostles, but it so happened that he also became a character in many legends. And it so happened that Foma and Erema began to act as a comical couple. These were accomplices doing all sorts of stupid things. Subsequently, proverbs, sayings, folk stories, fairy tales, songs and even pictures on this topic arose. The vast majority of such works were based on playing with a similar technique: the parallelism of different sentences.
If we talk about church canons, then, according to the Holy Scriptures, Thomas was one of the 12 apostles who did not believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He lived in Galilee and was engaged in fishing in the same way as the apostles James, John and Peter. It is interesting that Thomas was often called “twin” by his disciples, because in appearance he was very similar to Christ. When Thomas did not believe in the resurrection of Jesus, he himself appeared to Thomas and showed him his wounds. Subsequently, Thomas continued to preach Christianity in Persia and India. He died a martyr's death in the 1st century, dying at the hands of the pagans. By the way, there is a popular saying “Doubting Thomas,” the origin of which is precisely connected with the personality of the saint.

Fomin's day.
On this day, the memory of St. Thomas, one of the Twelve Apostles, is celebrated. He lived in Galilee and was engaged in fishing until one day he heard the sermon of Christ, which prompted him to leave home and join Jesus on his wanderings. Soon he was chosen as one of his closest students. According to legend, Thomas was nicknamed “twin” because in appearance he was very similar to Christ.
One of the biblical episodes associated with Thomas is probably known to everyone - at least by the common nickname “Doubting Thomas,” which is awarded to people who doubt something. According to the Gospel of John, Thomas was not present at the first appearance of the resurrected Jesus to the apostles and could not believe the miracle that occurred. Thomas believed in the resurrection of Christ when the Savior appeared to him and allowed him to touch his wounds.
In Rus', the peasants revered the Apostle Thomas because he was famous for his thrift and thrift. " Bring everything to Foma“, - said our ancestors. A croma was a large bag or place in a barn for storing grain or other products. By the way, such words as “bins”, “secluded”, “modest” and others came from the same root.

If the barns and cellars were full, they said: “ Glad Foma that the edge is great" In this case, they went to church and lit a candle in gratitude to the thrifty saint.
Signs of the weather were observed on Foma. If the day turned out to be windless, this foreshadowed an early cold snap. They also said that on this day the last cumulus clouds float across the sky.
