Question 3 of 9
3. Question
I repeat this story here because some traditions have confused this sinful woman with Mary Magdalene, calling her a former prostitute. Because of this mistaken identity, Mary Magdalene has been maligned for centuries, but nothing in this scripture relates her to Mary Magdalene.
The first mention of Mary Magdalene in the Bible is in the book of Luke.
The Scripture: Luke 8:2-3
“Jesus traveled from one town and village to another, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him, and also some women who had been cured of evil spirits and diseases. Mary (called Magdalene) from whom seven demons had come out, Joanna the wife of Cuza, the manager of Herod’s household; Susanne and many others. These women were helping to support them out of their own means.”
7. Who was traveling with Jesus?
8. What had Mary Magdalene been healed of?

Question 5 of 9
5. Question
It’s often hard for us to picture Jesus as an itinerant preacher dependent upon others for His support, but that is exactly what He was. Because Mary Magdalene is almost always in the company of older women, some authorities believe it is reasonable to assume that she, too, was a more mature woman, rather than a glamorous seductress. For a long period the Bible is silent about Mary Magdalene. She is not mentioned again until Jesus’ crucifixion. After Jesus was arrested, He was brought before Pilate, the Roman governor.
The Scripture: John 19:14-16
“It was the Day of Preparation of Passover Week, about the sixth hour “Here is your king,” Pilate said to the Jews. But they shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!’ `Shall I crucify your king?’ Pilate asked. ‘We have no king but Caesar,’ the chief priests answered. Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified.”
10. When did this happen?

Question 8 of 9
8. Question
These women who had traveled with Jesus and helped support Him now followed Him to the foot of the cross. Imagine their despair. Everything Mary and the others believed about Jesus, all their dreams about what He was going to accomplish seemed to have come to an end. We have no reason to believe that at this point Mary’s faith was any greater than that of the disciples.
Later that day, Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent Jewish council member who believed in Jesus went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. When it was ascertained that Jesus was dead, Pilate granted his wish.
The Scripture: John 19:38-39
“He (Joseph) came and took the body of Jesus away. He was accompanied by Nicodemus, the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds. Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it with the spices of linen. At the place Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid, they laid Jesus there.”

18. Who was Nicodemus?
19. What did the two men do?
