SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:49
Mas todos sus conocidos, y las mujeres que le habían seguido desde Galilea, estaban lejos mirando estas cosas.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 49. And all his acquaintance , etc.] That were related to him in a natural, or in a spiritual sense, or both, as his own mother, and beloved disciple John, who were both present, ( John 19:26) or those that were known unto him, and familiar with him, who attended on his ministry, and often conversed, and were intimately acquainted with him: and the women that followed him from Galilee ; among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Joses, and Salome the mother of Zebedee's children: stood afar off ; from the cross: beholding these things ; with wonder, as well as looking upon their dear suffering Lord, with aching hearts, and flowing eyes.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 44-49 - We have here the death of Christ magnified by the wonders that attende it, and his death explained by the words with which he breathed out his soul. He was willing to offer himself. Let us seek to glorify God be true repentance and conversion; by protesting against those who crucif the Saviour; by a sober, righteous, and godly life; and by employin our talents in the service of Him who died for us and rose again.

49. That followed (sunakoluqousai). Lit., followed with (sun). So Rev. See on Matt. xxvii. 55.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
23:49 {Stood afar off} (histekeisan apo makroqen). Same verb as in verse #35. Low-spirited picture of the inner circle of the acquaintances of Jesus and the faithful band of women from Galilee. {Seeing these things} (horwsai tauta). And helpless either to prevent them or to understand them. They could only stand and look with blinded eyes.
