From the ISBE.....<br>Salome<br><br>sa-lo&#772;´me&#772;&#769; (&#931;&#945;&#955;&#969;&#769;&#956;&#951;, Salo&#772;&#769;me&#772;):<br>(1) One of the holy women who companied with Jesus in Galilee, and ministered to Him (Mar_15:40, Mar_15:41). She was present at the crucifixion (Mar_15:40), and was among those who came to the tomb of Jesus on the resurrection morning (Mar_16:1, Mar_16:2). Comparison with Mat_27:56 clearly identifies her with the wife of Zebedee. It is she, therefore, whose ambitious request for her sons James and John is recorded in Mat_20:20-24; Mar_10:35-40. From Joh_19:25 many infer that she was a sister of Mary, the mother of Jesus (thus Meyer, Luthardt, Alford); others (as Godet) dispute the inference.<br>(2) Salome was the name of the daughter of Herodias who danced before Herod, and obtained as reward the head of John the Baptist (Mat_14:3-11; Mar_6:17-28; compare Josephus, Ant., XVIII, v, 4). She is not named in the Gospels.<br>
