The Gospel of John [269] emphasizes the special role of Mary Magdalene. She is the first to meet the Risen Christ. [...] Hence she came to be called "the apostle of the Apostles". Mary Magdalene was the first eyewitness of the Risen Christ, and for this reason she was also the first to bear witness to him before the Apostles.

A medieval legendary account had Mary Magdalene, Mary of Jacob and Mary Salome, [10] Mark's Three Marys at the Tomb, or Mary Magdalene, Mary of Cleopas and Mary Salome, [11] with Saint Sarah, the maid of one of them, as part of a group who landed near Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in Provence after a voyage from the Holy Land.
His sister and his mother and his companion were each a Mary. [6] In different places in the Gospel of Philip, Mary Magdalene is called Jesus's companion, partner or consort, using Coptic variants of the word koinōnos (κοινωνός), [10] of Greek origin, or the word hōtre, of Egyptian origin.
