MARK 15:41 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“(Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.”
In Galilee these women had followed him and cared for his needs. Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem were also there — the women had followed (akolouthēo, the discipleship verb) and cared for his needs (diakonein, served — the verb of the community standard, used for the angels' service in 1:13 and the healed woman's service in 1:31). The women disciples, unnamed until the cross, are the stable core of the disciple community when the named inner circle has collapsed.
