Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The name Salome is derived from the Hebrew word שָׁלוֹם (shalom), which is Strong's Hebrew entry 7965, meaning "peace," "completeness," or "welfare." This connection emphasizes the peaceful and harmonious connotations associated with the name Salome. Usage: The name Salome appears in the New Testament, specifically in the context of the women who followed Jesus and were present at His crucifixion and resurrection. Context: Salome is a significant figure in the New Testament, known for her devotion and service to Jesus Christ. She is mentioned in the Gospels as one of the women who followed Jesus and ministered to Him. Salome is identified as the mother of the apostles James and John, the sons of Zebedee. Her presence is noted at critical moments in the Gospel narratives, highlighting her role as a faithful disciple. In the Gospel of Mark, Salome is one of the women who witnessed the crucifixion of Jesus from a distance (Mark 15:40). She is also among the women who went to the tomb to anoint Jesus' body after the Sabbath, only to find the stone rolled away and the tomb empty (Mark 16:1). This act of devotion underscores her commitment and courage, as she sought to honor Jesus even after His death. Salome's request to Jesus, as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, reveals her desire for her sons to have a prominent place in Jesus' kingdom (Matthew 20:20-21). This request, while ambitious, demonstrates her belief in Jesus' messianic mission and her hope for the future kingdom. Salome's legacy is one of dedication and service, reflecting the broader role of women in the early Christian community. Her actions and presence at key events in Jesus' life and ministry illustrate the important contributions of women to the spread of the Gospel.
