John 19:25–27 25 but standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!” 27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.   Introduction — The Seven Sayings from the Cross The Faithful Mother   The Beloved Disciple  The Covenant Community The Church as Family   At the Cross
