*on the 3rd day, who went to the tomb? Mary Magdalene by her lonesome, or her with a group of women ?
Yeah, who else to witness a resurrection but a mentally ill woman. If you remember Mary Magdalene had been possessed by "seven devils." She had been a madwoman or, in any case, seriously disturbed, and her behavior might have remained erratic enough to give her the reputation of being "touched." Even if she had shown marked improvement under Jesus' influence, the shock of the arrest, trial and crucifixion might well have unhinged her once more and made her an easy target for hallucination.
Even the disciples didn't believe her for some time.
There would come tales of Jesus having appeared to this disciple or that, under such circumstances or others, and a number of them would be recorded in the gospels when these came to be written. But all might conceivably have rested entirely upon the word of one witness, Mary Magdalene.
I've often thought the same thing. Mary is the one common denominator in these stories.
