> Mary Magdalene (i.e. of Magdala; d. 1st cent.) appears several times in the New Testament as one of the women about Jesus. Jesus had cast seven devils out of her (Luke 8:2; Mark 16:9), she was among the Galilean women who are recorded by name as having observed the Crucifixion (Matthew 27:56; Mark 15:40; John 19:25), she was one of the women who went to Jesus' tomb to anoint him (Matthew 28:1-3; Mark 16:1-3; Luke 24:1), and it was she who first saw the risen Jesus (Mark 16:9; John 20:11-18). This Mary being thus a person of some importance in the Gospel narratives, some from at least St. Gregory the Great onward have attempted give her a fuller presentation by identifying her with others, notably Mary of Bethany (Luke 10:38-42; John 11) and the unnamed penitent sinner who washed Jesus' feet (Luke 7:36-50). This triune M. was the subject of a liturgically influential sermon attributed to St. Odo of Cluny (BHL 5439-41).
