Matthew 27:56
Mary Magdalene. Mentioned first here, also in Luke 8:2, before
the resurrection. She had been healed by the Lord.
Mary the mother of James and Joses. She was the wife of Clopas or
Alphaeus (John 19:25).
The mother of Zebedee's children. Salome. John mentions "his
(Jesus') mother's sister" (John 19:25), but does not name Salome,
his own mother. Hence it is inferred that Salome was the sister of
Mary, the mother of Jesus. Mary, the mother of Jesus, was also at the
cross.
