Mary Magdalene
Mary Magdalene is a prominent figure in the New Testament, often recognized as a devoted follower of Jesus. Her name, "Magdalene," indicates she was from Magdala, a town on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee. In the Greek, "Magdalene" (Μαγδαληνή) signifies her origin, distinguishing her from other women named Mary. Her presence at the crucifixion and burial of Jesus highlights her unwavering loyalty and love for Him. Historically, Mary Magdalene has been revered as a symbol of repentance and redemption, having been delivered from seven demons by Jesus (Luke 8:2). Her role in witnessing Jesus' burial underscores her importance in the Gospel narratives and her deep personal connection to Christ.

and Mary the mother of Joseph
This Mary is often identified as Mary, the mother of James the Less and Joses (Joseph), mentioned earlier in Mark 15:40. The Greek text refers to her as "Μαρία ἡ Ἰωおめがσしぐまῆτος μήτηρ," which translates to "Mary the mother of Joses." This identification helps differentiate her from other Marys in the Gospel accounts. Her presence at the burial site signifies the involvement of Jesus' close followers and family in His final earthly moments. Historically, this Mary is considered to be a relative of Jesus, possibly His aunt, which would explain her close proximity to the events surrounding His death and burial.

saw where He was laid
The Greek word for "saw" is "ἐθεώρουν" (etheōroun), which implies a careful observation or witnessing. This indicates that Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph were not merely present but were attentive and intentional in noting the location of Jesus' tomb. This detail is crucial for the resurrection narrative, as their knowledge of the tomb's location authenticates their later testimony of the empty tomb. The phrase "where He was laid" emphasizes the physical reality of Jesus' death and burial, countering any claims that His resurrection was merely spiritual or metaphorical. The women's role as witnesses to both the burial and the resurrection highlights the integral part women played in the early Christian community, serving as the first to proclaim the risen Christ. Historically and scripturally, their testimony is foundational to the Christian faith, affirming the truth of the resurrection.

(47) Mary the mother of Joses.--In Matthew 27:61 she is described simply as "the other Mary."

Verse 47. - And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid (θしーたεいぷしろんώρουν πぱいοおみくろんτたうίθεται); literally, were beholding where he was laid. These women were two of the group mentioned at ver. 40. They remained, after the body of our Lord had been deposited, in sad and silent contemplation. The women appear to have broken up into two groups. One group went alone to purchase spices and ointments, which it was necessary for them to do before six o'clock, when the sabbath commenced; in readiness for the embalming. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses and Salome appear to have bought them after six o'clock on the Saturday night.
