Person

Mary

Gender:: Female
Verse mentions:: 8
Title:: Mary (wife of Cleophas)

Mary, the wife of Clopas, was one of the women who stood near the cross at Jesus's crucifixion and later went to his tomb (John 19:25; Matthew 27:61). She is likely the same person Matthew and Mark call "the mother of James and Joses" (Matthew 27:56). John's Gospel may identify her as a relative of Jesus's mother, though the Greek wording of that verse is ambiguous and has been read different ways.
