Matthew 27:56 says two Marys, "Among them were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee."

Mark 15:40 says two Marys, "There were also women looking on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of the younger James and of Joses, and Salome."

Luke does not mention any Marys by name at the Crucifixion.

John 19:25 says three Marys, "Standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala."

With love in Christ.

Yeah your right it was three Marys. Although the second Marry was the wife of Clopas not Cleophia.
