No, although in one sense they did. Just as Adam and Eve stood in the Garden of Eden representing all mankind at the Fall, Mary Magdalene stood there in the Garden of the Tomb representing the Woman when Jesus the Last Adam (Man) had conquered the sting of death and showed the way to eternal life in Christ. It is a beautiful scene. In the garden of the tomb, Jesus and Mary Magdalene stood there representing all those men and women who believe in Jesus' sacrifice, death, burial and resurrection. The First Man (Adam) and the First Woman (Eve) were the first parents but the relationship between Jesus and Mary Magdalene was required in order to have someone else in the garden of the resurrection representing the Woman just as there was a woman there in the Garden of Eden - in the garden of the Fall. It is interesting that Jesus uses two women from The Bible in such an important relationship to the Resurrection. One was Mary Magdalene. The other was Queen Sheba or Queen Hatshepsut of Egypt and Ethiopia. This Black African queen will be resurrected, according to Jesus in the Gospels, to participate in a judgment panel that will send the Jewish leaders who rejected Jesus to Damnation.

People rightly ask why Mary Magdalene seems to have a role that on one hand seems quite prominent yet on the other also seems quite enigmatic. There are many enigmatic themes in the Bible. Why, in the Garden of Eden, did Eve say to the serpent (i.e., Satan) "we must not even touch the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil". Many go on to say Eve was already showing her capacity to be deceived by distorting God's original message not to "consume" or "eat" of that tree. They say "God never said anything about 'touching' it". Now, with schools in New Zealand being exhorted to give every pupil a touch-tronic computer pad to do their lessons on, we see the point. God placed (embedded) a touch-tronic computer in a tree to test whether the first human pair would be inquisitive enough, and disobedient, and go and touch it watch the various icons come up and start investigating its 'fruits'. Anyone who believes in the all-knowing and all-powerful God (Jehovah) also knows that God could have created such a computer eons before Apple Corporation, Steve Jobs etc. It was Adam and Eve in the Garden, not Adam and Steve.

The modern world's fascination with computers and electronics, paralleled by New Age concepts that we are all part of some universal consciousness, coming on top of three centuries of the so-called enlightenment; have all pushed the Bible into the realms of obscurity. But as God told the prophet Daniel (Daniel 12:4, 9), the Bible's messages - both the enigmatic and the plain and obvious - would be understood at the end of days or in the last days of this era (age, world). The Bible is quite plain on many issues in particular the point about Man's sinfulness and where it would lead to - modern 21st century chaos and all that went before. Just what the tree of knowledege of good and evil was or why Mary Magdalene was the first to see the resurrected Jesus are more enigmatic subjects but like the parables Jesus explained to his disciples they are explained to believers who in turn are commanded to pass those explanations on to the unsaved that they too might receive God's free gift of salvation through His Only Begotten Son (Jesus of Nazareth).

Jesus is said to have loved all of his friends and followers. As to whether or not he was actually in love with anyone during his time on Earth, only he would know this.

Who was with Mary at the grave of Jesus?

In Matthew's Gospel, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to the tomb of Jesus. An angel met them outside and said that Jesus was risen. In Mark's Gospel, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Salome went to the tomb of Jesus. The stone was already moved and a young man met them inside the tomb and said that Jesus was risen. In Luke's Gospel, Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James and other women went to the tomb. Two men in shining garments met them inside. In John's Gospel, Mary Magdalene was alone when she went to the tomb early in the morning. Seeing the stone moved aside, she returned immediately without meeting anyone or looking inside. After the disciples came to look and had left, Mary Magdalene was again outside the tomb when she met Jesus, whom she mistook for the gardener.


Was Mary Magdalene at Jesus crucifixion?

The Gospels of Matthew and Mark say that Mary Magdalene was among the women who watched form afar off; none of the acquaintances of Jesus was actually at the crucifixion. Luke's Gospel is similar, although it only says that the women watched from afar off. John's Gospel says that Mary the mother of Jesus was actually at the crucifixion, but does not mention Mary Magdalene or any other women.
