(Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women who came up with him unto Jerusalem.
All Commentaries on Mark 15:41 Go To Mark 15
John Chrysostom
AD 407
For what reason then was he being supported by women? For women, it is said, followed him and ministered to him. It was to teach us from the first that he is ready to receive those who do the good. Could not Paul, who supported others by his own hands, have maintained himself without assistance from others? But you see him receiving and requesting aid. Now hear the reason for it. “Not because I want a gift,” he says, “but I want fruit that may abound to your account.”
