MARK 15:40 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;”
Some women were watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joseph, and Salome — the women watching from a distance are the faithful witnesses when the twelve have fled. Mary Magdalene is named first in every Gospel's resurrection account. The women who follow from Galilee (verse 41) are the continuity of witness between the death and the resurrection — they are present at the cross, the burial, and the empty tomb.
