Mary, the wife of Cleopas
Mary is the wife of Cleopas and was one of various Marys named in the Bible. Very little is known about her, except her marriage. After a close reading of the New Testament, Mary appears to be the mother of Jesus's "brothers," and "sisters." She was probably the sister of Jesus's mother making them first cousins which was considered, "brothers" in ancient times.
