The answer to this question depends on which gospel is preferred as a source.
The ealiest of the gospels, The Gospel According to St Mark, is clear in that none of the disciples was at the crucifixion. Women looked from afar off: among them, Mary.


The Gospel According to St Matthew says only that women looked from afar off: among them, Mary and Mary Magdalene.


The Gospel According to St Luke says that those of his acquaintance stood afar off with the women.

The Gospel According to St John says that the mother of Jesus, her sister (also called Mary) and Mary Magdalene stood by the cross with the disciple whom he loved. Nowhere is the disciple whom Jesus loved identified, but Christian tradition holds him to be John

Who was the apostle that stayed at the foot of the cross with Jesus?

The Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke are clear in saying that no disciple of Jesus stood at the foot of the cross; those of his acquaintance stood afar off. In the Gospel of John, the "disciple whom Jesus loved" stood at the foot of the cross with Mary. Who the disciple was, or who he was intended to be, is unknown. The second-century Church Fathers, by a process of elimination, decided that the disciple must have been John.

How many apostles stood at the foot of Jesus' cross?

A:In the synoptic gospels, none of the disciples stood at the foot of the cross. They are quite clear in stating that those of Jesus' acquaintance stood afar off (Luke 23:49). John's Gospel, although loosely based on Luke, changes the account of the crucifixion to place the 'disciple whom Jesus loved' at the foot of the cross with Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Jesus and her sister. The second-century Church Fathers announced that the beloved disciple must have been John, son of Zebedee, and the Christian Church has subsequently accepted this attribution.
