In John's Gospel, Jesus told "the disciple whom Jesus loved" to care for his mother, Mary, and told his mother, this is your son. We do not know who "the disciple whom Jesus loved" was, but a tradition beginning in the second century is that this was John. This instruction is missing from the synoptic gospels, where the disciple was not present at the crucifixion.
In the King James versionthe phrase - woman this is your son - does not appear at all.The questioner may be thinking of the phraseJoh 19:26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
We believe that Jesus is God's(Jehovah) son. At Matthew 3:17 after Jesus' baptism a voice from heaven says, "This is my son the beloved whom I have approved. Also at John 3:16 the scriptures tell us that God sent his only son to die for us.
His full name would be either Jesus, Son of Joseph; Jesus, Son of Mary; Jesus, Son of David; or Jesus, Son of God, depending on whom you are talking with. For short, you could always say God.
THis is My Son in WHom I am well pleased
John 19:26, 27 - When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, "Woman, behold your son!" Then He said to the disciple, "Behold your mother!" And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home. [NKJV]
At Jesus' baptism, God said, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
At Jesus' baptism, a voice from heaven said, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
They believed He was the son of God, the promised messiah.
Jesus was the only begotten (of woman) son of God, who identified himself to Moses as "I am".
The woman concerned was Mary the mother of Jesus. When Jesus said 'Woman behold your son' Jesus was not referring to himself as the woman's son' In the next part of the account Jesus says to the disciple who was standing by Mary, "behold, your mother' referring to the Mary. This passage comes from John's gospel, and it is generally believed that John refers to himself throughout this gospel as 'the disciple whom Jesus loved'. As we are told that the disciple at the cross is this very same disciple, we can be assured that it was John who stood with Mary. We know that John was this disciple as there are parallel accounts of incidents in the other gospels whete Jesus is with Peter, James and John - but in John's gospel the same accounts use the phrase: Peter, James and "the disciple whom Jesus loved"...suggesting that John shows a little modesty in his own account. In Jewish law the oldest son was responsible for looking after a widowed mother. In Jesus' case, being the oldest son of Mary, who by that time was widowed, it was his responsibility to arrange care for her. When Jesus said 'Woman, behold your son" and to John "behold your mother" he was passing on the responsibility, after his death, of looking after Mary, to the only disciple who stuck with him - John. We are then told that John took Mary into his own home and looked after her as his own mother.
The Jesus picture is based on the historical figure Jesus Christ, who is a central figure in Christianity and is believed by Christians to be the Son of God.
