Go to my brothers and tell them, 'I am going to my Father a nd your Father, to my God and your God.'" ~ John 20:17
The name Magedalene means "from Magdala," a village on the shores of the Sea of Ga lilee. Mary Magdalene is the woman out of whom Jesus drove seven demons (Ma rk 16:9, Luke 8:2). This Mary was present at the crucifixion of Jesus (Mar k 15:40). She was also present at his burial (Mark 15:47).
So me think she's the sinful woman who anointed Jesus' feet at Simon's house ( Luke 7:36-50). But this is only speculation. Likewise, some think she was the sister of Martha and Lazarus (John 11:1, 12:3). But again, this is on ly speculation. This much is certain. She is someone who loved Jesus deeply . In the final analysis this is all that matters. ~ J.M.Guerin
