Mark 14:8 says the earlier anointing was done beforehand for burial, directly connecting to the women's intent in Mark 16:1 to anoint Jesus' body.

Mark 15:40 lists the same three women watching the crucifixion—Mary Magdalene, Mary mother of James, and Salome—who later come to anoint Jesus.

Mark 15:42 explains why the women waited: Jesus was buried on Preparation day, so they bought spices after Sabbath.

Mark 15:47 names two of the women from Mark 16:1, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses, who saw where Jesus was laid.

Matthew 28:1-10 gives a parallel account of the women's visit, adding the angel and Jesus meeting them.

Luke 23:54 clarifies the timing: Jesus was buried just as Sabbath began, explaining the women's delay.

Luke 23:56 shows they prepared spices before Sabbath, then rested — explaining their purchase here after Sabbath.

Luke 24:1-12 gives a parallel account of the women's visit, including the empty tomb and report to apostles.

Luke 24:10 names Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary mother of James among the women who reported the resurrection—overlapping with Mark's group.

John 19:40 records Nicodemus and Joseph wrapping Jesus' body with spices at burial—the same burial the women later come to anoint.

John 20:1-18 gives a different perspective: Mary Magdalene goes alone, sees empty tomb, then meets Jesus.

Matthew 27:56 lists the same women, identifying Salome as the mother of Zebedee's sons, linking the two accounts.

Matthew 26:12 shows Jesus was already anointed for burial, making the women's later anointing attempt a parallel act of devotion.

Luke 8:2 adds that Mary Magdalene had seven demons cast out, providing background for her devotion here.

John 19:25 places Mary Magdalene at the cross, confirming her presence at Jesus' death and her role in coming to the tomb.

John 19:31 explains the urgency of burial on Preparation day, setting up the women's visit after Sabbath.
