Author:Mary Magdalene
(Hebrew: מרים המגדלית, original Greek: Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνή), or Mary of Magdala and sometimes the Magdalene, is a figure in Christianity who, according to the Bible, traveled with Jesus as one of his followers. The unnamed sinner who anoints Jesus' feet in Luke, and Mary of Bethany, who in John also anoints Jesus' feet, were long regarded as the same person as Mary Magdalene.
