The Three Marys John Writes of Three Women Named Mary Who Stood by the Cross: John Writes of Three Women Named Mary Who Stood by the Cross Lesson Nine The Three Marys John writes of three women named Mary who stood by the cross: John writes of three women named Mary who stood by the cross: John 19:25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. Two of the Marys are easy to identify – Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Mary Magdalene, (although one must remember that Mary Magdalene and Mary of Bethany – the sister of Martha and Lazarus – are two different people.) Some say that “Mary the wife of Cleophas” was Mary’s sister-in-law. Some say that “Mary the wife of Cleophas” was Mary’s sister-in-law. Cleophas has been identified with Cleopas, one of the two men with Jesus on the road to Emmaus (Lk 24:18). Luke 23:55 mentions “the women which came with him from Galilee”, but gives no names. Matthew and Mark do not speak of the women who stood by the cross, but of the women who stood afar off. As such, their accounts do not exactly match what is written in John. Matthew and Mark both identify Mary Magdalene as one of the women. Matthew 27:55-56 55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him: 56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, Matthew and Mark both identify and the mother of Zebedee's children. Mary Magdalene as one of the women. Matthew 27:55-56 55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him: 56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, Matthew and Mark both identify and the mother of Zebedee's children. Mary Magdalene as one of the women. Mark 15:40 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; Matthew 27:55-56 55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him: 56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, “The mother of Zebedee’s children” and the mother of Zebedee's children. is easily identified. Zebedee’s children were the apostles “James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother” (Mt. 4:21). Mark 15:40 There were also women looking on afar Their mother asked Jesus to reserve a off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, special place in heaven for her sons: and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome; Matthew 20:20-21 20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him. 21 And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom. Jesus answered, “To sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father” (v. 23) Matthew 27:55-56 Matthew speaks of three women: 55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him: 56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.

  • Jesus Threefold Victory Over Satan
    JESUS THREEFOLD VICTORY OVER SATAN Satan was the reason for Redemption. There could be no Redemption without defeating Satan. Satan’s eternal defeat was part of the Redemptive plan. Hebrews 9:12 (NIV) But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that are now already here, he went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made with human hands, that is to say, is not a part of this creation. 12 He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves; but he entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption. Satan is Eternally defeated. Jesus Victory in His Earth Walk John 1:14 (NIV) The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. This was God’s invasion of the sense realm. Here natural man lived. It could not work without an incarnation. An angel’s visit would not help. God had to come himself. His first combat with Satan with which we are familiar is recorded in Matthew 4:1-11 and in Luke 4:1-13. In both of these records we have Satan attempting to overcome the Incarnate One as he had overcome Adam in the Garden. He tempted Jesus through the senses the same way he tempted Adam, but Jesus met him with the Word, and conquered him when He came down out of the mount.

  • The Earliest Magdalene: Varied Portrayals in Early Gospel Narratives
    Chapter 1 The Earliest Magdalene: Varied Portrayals in Early Gospel Narratives Edmondo Lupieri In the early writings produced by the followers of Jesus, Mary Magdalene is connected with key events in the narrative regarding Jesus: his death on the cross, his burial, and his resurrection.1 At first sight, her figure seems to grow in importance through time. Her name and figure, indeed, are completely ab- sent from the oldest extant texts written by a follower of Jesus, the authentic letters of Paul.2 This is particularly striking, since 1 Cor 15:5–8 contains the ear- liest known series of witnesses to the resurrection, but only men are named specifically.3 1 All translations are the author’s. The Greek text of the New Testament is from Eberhard Nestle et al., eds., Novum Testamentum Graece, 27th ed. (Stuttgart: Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft, 1993). 2 This phenomenon seems to parallel the minimal importance of the mother of Jesus in Paul’s letters. He mentions her only once and indirectly, when stressing that Jesus was born “of a woman” and “under the Law” (Gal 4:4). Besides using her existence to reaffirm the humanity (and Jewishness) of Jesus (for a similar use of a similar expression to describe the humanity of John the Baptist, see Luke 7:28 / Matt 11:11), Paul does not seem to care about who that “woman” was. This does not mean that Paul is particularly uninterested in Mary Magdalene or in Jesus’s mother, but that generally in his letters Paul does not seem to be interested in any detail regarding the earthly life of Jesus or in the persons who were around him when he was in his human flesh (see further n.

  • Then the Mother of the Sons of Zebedee Came up to Him with Her Sons, and Kneeling Before Him She Asked Him for Something
    20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came up to him with her sons, and kneeling before him she asked him for something. 21 And he said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Say that these two sons of mine are to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom.” 22 Jesus answered, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am to drink?” They said to him, “We are able.” Matthew 20:20-22 ESV I. Overcoming Status Means Overcoming Pride a) Adam Gave in to it! - 8 And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the LORD God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?” 10 And he said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.” 11 He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” 12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” Gen 3:8-13 ESV b) Lucifer Gave into it! - 12“How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low! 13 You said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; above the stars of God I will set my throne on high; I will sit on the mount of assembly in the far reaches of the north; 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.’ 15 But you are brought down to Sheol, to the far reaches of the pit.

  • Meet the Disciples Here’S a Synopsis of the Information the Bible Gives Us About the 12 Disciples
    In a scene from the television series “The Chosen,” Jesus (left) meets brothers Andrew (center) and Simon. Meet the disciples Here’s a synopsis of the information the Bible gives us about the 12 disciples. The more you know about them, the more you can relate to their experiences as they followed Jesus. If you’re interested in an extremely creative (and yet biblical) look at the disciples, discover The Chosen television series. The first season is available on YouTube, with more information available at studios.vidangel.com/the-chosen. Simon, called Peter. The only married disciple, at least esus went up on a mountainside according to what we know from the Gospels. His mother-in-law and called to him those he wanted, was healed by Jesus (Mark 1:30). At Caesarea Philippi (Matthew J 16:13ff), Jesus gave Simon the name Peter, which means “Rock.” and they came to him. He appointed It was here that Jesus also referred to Simon as a “son of Jonah,” twelve that they might be with him and in a less complimentary moment, as “Satan!” See Matthew and that he might send them out to 16:23 for the context. The Gospel of Mark is generally thought preach and to have authority to drive to be Mark’s written record of the eye-witness account of Simon out demons. These are the twelve Peter. Simon’s betrayal of Jesus was second only to that of Judas Iscariot. Unlike Judas, Simon lived through the weekend and he appointed: Simon (to whom he was eventually restored into full fellowship (John 21).

  • On the Implausibility of Identifying the Disciple in John 18:15–16 As a Galilean Fisherman
    Novum Testamentum 61 (2019) 367–385 brill.com/nt On the Implausibility of Identifying the Disciple in John 18:15–16 as a Galilean Fisherman Robert J. Myles Murdoch University, Perth, Australia [email protected] Michael Kok Vose Seminary Abstract John 18:15–16 mentions an unknown disciple of Jesus who “was known to the high priest” giving him access to the events in Caiaphas’s courtyard. A minority of scho- lars maintain the identity of this disciple is consistent with John, the son of Zebedee, whom they also maintain was the author of the Fourth Gospel. To support this posi- tion, the commonplace fiction of Galilean fishermen belonging to an aspiring “middle- class” is asserted. This article reviews the arguments and suggests that a more robust representation of class stratification in the ancient world demonstrates the implausi- bility of such a scenario. Keywords Gospel of John – authorship – beloved disciple – fishing – class – agrarian society 1 Introduction Who wrote the Fourth Gospel? As is well-known, the superscripts of all four canonical Gospels were added after the fact and the Gospel “according to John” was originally anonymous. Despite the Gospel also cloaking the “disciple © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2019 | doi:10.1163/15685365-12341637 368 Myles and kok whom Jesus loved” (cf. John 13:23; 19:26; 20:2; 21:7, 20) in a shroud of anonymity,1 many readers have tried to uncover his or her identity from the internal clues within the text.2 Various church fathers, including Irenaeus of Lyon, deduced that John, son of Zebedee and the Lord’s disciple, was the privileged person who reclined next to Jesus in John 13:23–25 (cf.

  • Women with Jesus at the Cross and the Tomb Bible Study
    Women with Jesus at the Cross and the Tomb Bible Study [Please provide : musical accompaniment; Bibles, hymnals, and copies of the Bible study for attendees.] Beginning with Ash Wednesday and for 40 days following, we are in the period of the church year called Lent. It is a time to remember the suffering, death, and burial in preparation for the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. As we approach and journey through Lent, let us focus on the women who were present when Jesus was crucified on Calvary and later at His tomb. Let us begin with prayer : Lord Jesus Christ, be with us as we study Your Word, meditating upon those women who were near You at the cross and the tomb. In Your holy name. Amen. Sing “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross” LSB 425 or 426, TLH 175, LW 114 or 115 I. Standing Near the Cross – read John 19:25-27 • Four women are mentioned: o Mary, the mother of Jesus o His mother’s sister – tradition holds this is Salome, mother of James and John, the sons of Zebedee o Mary, the wife of Clopas – the only time she or Clopas are mentioned o Mary Magdalene The women took a risk by being present at the cross. It took courage for them to stand there in the midst of the hatred and ridicule. Their attendance was intended to encourage Jesus. Jesus’ mother, Mary, is experiencing what Simeon had predicted years before in Luke 2:35. As she stood there, her grief must have been nearly unbelievable.

I pray you are well as we continue to celebrate the Lord’s Glorious Resurrection. Sunday, May 3, 2020 Today, the third Sunday of Pascha the church commemorates the myrrh-bearing women. These women followed the Lord, along with His Mother. They remained with her during the time of His Passion, and anointed the Lord’s body with myrrh. Joseph of Arimathea and Nikodemos asked for and received the Lord’s body from Pilate. They took it down from the Cross, wrapped it in linen cloths and spices and laid it in a new tomb. Then they placed a great stone over the entrance of the tomb. According to the Evangelist Matthew, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joses were there sitting opposite the sepulcher, and saw where He had been laid. Today the church honors Saints Mary Magdalene, Mary the wife of Cleopas, Joanna, Salome, mother of the sons of Zebedee, Martha and Mary the sisters of Lazarus and the Most Holy Theotokos and Ever Virgin Mary, who was the stepmother of her husband Joseph’s sons James and Joses.

  • A New Perspective on John the Baptist's Failure to Support Jesus
    A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON JOHN THE BAPTIST'S FAILURE TO SUPPORT JESUS Laurent Guymot At the heart of all dialogues between Christians and Jews there is, inevitably, the question of the Messiah: "Are you he who is to come, or shall we wait for another?" —Jürgen Moltmann pplied to the New Testament, some of the tasks of the historical- critical method are to separate layers of redaction work in the Gospels, to Adetermine the oldest strata of tradition, and to present the most probably authentic words of Jesus and the events of his life. Conservative evangelical Christians are generally hostile to such an approach and insist that the complete New Testament is inspired and historically true. One possible meeting point between conservatives and historically-minded liberals which has gained some recent support is, to assert that since Christianity is founded on the resurrected Jesus, it need not be threatened by historical inquiry into Jesus' earthly ministry. One reason is sufficient, in my eyes, to justify the historical-critical method as part of Unificationist studies. Unificationism claims to rely not only on revelation but also on science, and it cannot be denied that archeology and critical exegesis, the basic tools of historical research, are scientific in nature. Beyond the polemic that they generate, most scholars involved in the "quest Laurent Guyénot graduated from the Unification Theological Seminary in 1990. He is presently director of Editions Exergue, a French publishing company. He is the author of three books, one of which, Le roi sans prophète (The King without Prophet) is about the relationship between Jesus and John the Baptist.
