Magdalene @ a surname derived from Magdala, the place of her nativity, given to one of the Marys of the Gospels to distinguish her from the other Marys Matthew:27:56Matthew:27:61Matthew:28:1, etc.). A mistaken notion has prevailed that this Mary was a woman of bad character, that she was the woman who is emphatically called "a sinner" Luke:7:36-50). (See MARY.)
