X.1764
| 1764 This fragment was
found by Grabe in a ms. of
the Bodleian Library, with the inscription on the margin,
“Papia.” Westcott states that it forms part of a dictionary
written by “a mediæval Papias. [He seems to have added the words,
“Maria is called Illuminatrix, or Star of the Sea,” etc, a
middle-age device.] The dictionary exists in ms. both at Oxford and
Cambridge.”

(1.) Mary the mother of the Lord; (2.) Mary
the wife of Cleophas or Alphæus, who was the mother of James the bishop
and apostle, and of Simon and Thaddeus, and of one Joseph; (3.) Mary
Salome, wife of Zebedee, mother of John the evangelist and James; (4.)
Mary Magdalene. These four are found in the Gospel. James and Judas and
Joseph were sons of an aunt (2) of the Lord’s. James also and John
were sons of another aunt (3) of the Lord’s. Mary (2), mother of
James the Less and Joseph, wife of Alphæus was the sister of Mary the
mother of the Lord, whom John names of Cleophas, either from her father
or from the family of the clan, or for some other reason. Mary Salome (3)
is called Salome either from her husband or her village. Some affirm that
she is the same as Mary of Cleophas, because she had two husbands. E.C.F. INDEX & SEARCH
