People's Commentary (NT)
Luke 8:2
And certain women. That these women should attend the footsteps of
Christ was opposed to the custom of Palestine. The admixture of the
sexes was not common. The rabbis held that the law should not be taught
to women.
Mary called Magdalene. That is, of Magdala, a village near the Sea
of Galilee. This is the first mention of her, and we know nothing more
of her preceding history. We know that after this she was one of the
most devoted friends of Christ.
Seven devils. See PNT "Mt 8:29", on demoniac possession.
