Luke 24:10 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:10

It was Mary Magdalene
Out of whom Christ had cast seven devils, who was a sincere penitent, a true believer in Christ, and an affectionate lover of him, and to whom he first appeared:

and Joanna;
the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, one that had been a follower of Christ, and had ministered to him of her substance; see ( Luke 8:2 Luke 8:3 )

and Mary the mother of James;
called the less; and also of Joses, and Simon, and Judas, the brethren, or kinsmen of Christ; this Mary, being the wife of Cleophas, or Alphaeus, said F11 to be the brother of Joseph, the husband of Mary, the mother of our Lord:

and other women that were with them;
as Salome, the mother of Zebedee's children, and others, that came from Galilee; ( Mark 15:40 Mark 15:41 ) ( 16:1 ) .

which told these things unto the apostles;
before observed.

9 When they returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the eleven and all the others.
10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles.

12 But Peter ran to the tomb. When he bent over to look inside, he saw only the linen cloth. Then he returned home, wondering what had happened.
