The Scriptures reveal that there were only two women by the name 'MARY,' at the crufixion, the burial, and the empty tomb of Jesus, and they are as follows.
Luke 24: 10; does not name the women at the cross of Jesus, nor does he name the women at the burial of Jesus, but he does name the two women by the name “Mary,” who went to the empty tomb on Sunday morning and they were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James (The brother of the Lord.)
Mark 15: 40; mentions the name of the two women at the cross of Jesus, by the name Mary, as Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the younger and Joseph, two of the brothers of Jesus who were born of the same womb as he.
Mark 15: 47; Then goes on to say, that the two women by the name Mary, who watched the burial of Jesus, were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph, the second son of Mary who was sired by Joseph the son of Jacob, the first husband of Mary.
Then at the empty tomb, Mark 16: 1; identifies the two women by the name Mary as, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the younger of her three biological sons, “Jesus, Joseph, and James the younger.”
Matthew 27: 56 reveals the names of two of the women at the cross of Jesus and they are, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, two of the three biological sons of Mary, the third and first born, being Jesus himself.
Then in 27: 61; Matthew identifies the two women who witnessed the burial of Jesus, as Mary Magdalene and the “OTHER” Mary. By saying the “OTHER” Mary, he reveals that there are only two women present by the name Mary, not three or more, but only two, and that the “OTHER” Mary he is referring to is Mary the mother of James and Joseph, who he already stated was at his cross.
Matthew reinforces this by stating that at the empty tomb of Jesus, the only two women present by the name Mary, were Mary Magdalene and the “OTHER” Mary, who we know from Matthew 27: 56; to be Mary the biological mother of Jesus, Joseph and James the younger.
This reveals that the gospel authors, have only two women by the name Mary at the crucifixion, burial, and empty tomb of Jesus, and they are Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Jesus, James and Joseph.
John 19: 25; Reveals who those two women by the name Mary are and what their relationship to each other is, when he says, “Standing close to the cross of Jesus, were his mother and his mother’s adelphe (And they are), Mary the mother of Jesus, who is the wife of Cleophas, her second husband, and her adelphe, Mary Magdalene.
Seeing you have it all wrong, As do alot of other people.
that there are 3 ( Three ) Mary's being spoken about in scriptures
So who do you suppose is the third Mary?
You have Mary the mother of Jesus
number #1
And Mary Magdalene as number #2
But who is this third Mary as number #3
Many people believe as you do, that there were only two Mary's at the cross of Jesus.
But however there were 3 Mary's at the cross of Jesus.
In the book of Matthew 27:55-61
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 Zebedees children.
57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:
58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre"
So who do you suppose is this other Mary to be.
Like alot of people take this to be Mary the mother of Jesus, Unto which it is not.
Now if you go back to verse 56 above, here you will find ( Mary Magdalene)
And ( Mary) the mother of James and Jose's. Which is also the mother of Jesus.
Matthew 13:55---" 55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas"
So we find two Mary's, But the question is.
Who is the third Mary, That is found sitting with Mary Magdalene at the sepulchre of Jesus.
Have you any idea who this other Mary is,
it does tell in the bible who she is.
So you have Mary the mother of Jesus
And Mary Magdalene
But who is this third Mary?
That was sitting with Mary Magdalene at the sepulchre ( tomb) of Christ Jesus.
Many people will say, this is Mary the mother of Jesus, unto which it is not.
And how exactly do we know this for sure,
Because in Matthew 27:56, here we find Mary the mother of Jesus being mentioned of,
Where as in verse 61 here we find Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, So we know this is not Mary the mother of Jesus.
Otherwise the verse 61 would haved stated so.
So the question remains, Who is this other Mary, as the bible does say who this other Mary is.
#1-- Mary the mother of Jesus
#2 -- Mary Magdalene
#3 -- the other Mary ?
