John, alone among the gospels, says that the "disciple whom Jesus loved" stood at the foot of the cross with Mary. All the other New Testament gospels say that Mary stood afar off, and any mention of the disciples had them also standing afar off.
Late in the second century, Irenaeus decided that the "Disciple whom Jesus loved" in the fourth gospel was John, son of Zebedee, and drew the conclusion that John was the author of this gospel. However, this conclusion was really only speculation.

Was James standing at the cross with jesus?
None of the New Testament gospels mentions James standing at the cross with Jesus. In fact, the synoptic gospels quite clearly say that none of the disciples was there. On the other hand, John's Gospel says that the "disciple whom Jesus loved" was at the foot of the cross, but does not identify this disciple. If John's Gospel is right, this could have been James, although Christian tradition says that the "disciple whom Jesus loved" was the disciple 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.
