<p> <b> [[Clopas]] </b> <b> ( </b> Κλωπᾶς).—Mentioned in John 19:25 as a relative, probably the husband, of one of the women who stood by the cross (Μαρία ἠ τοῦ Κλωπᾶ). By Chrysostom he was identified with Alphaeus; but this is improbable (See Alphaeus). For his connexion with [[Joseph]] and the family of Jesus, see art. [[Brethren]] of the Lord and Hasting's Dictionary of the Bible, vol. i. p. 322. According to certain apocryphal Acts of the Apostles, he is the same as the [[Cleopas]] of Luke 24:18. In that case the devotion which kept Mary of Clopas near the cross till the end finds a counterpart in her husband’s sorrow at the Crucifixion. But the identification rests on the derivation of both names from a common Greek original, Cleopatros, and is denied by those who regard Clopas as a Semitic name (see Deissmann, <i> Bible Studies </i> , English translation p. 315, n. [Note: note.] 2). </p> <p> | <p> <b> [[Clopas]] </b> <b> ( </b> Κλωπᾶς).—Mentioned in John 19:25 as a relative, probably the husband, of one of the women who stood by the cross (Μαρία ἠ τοῦ Κλωπᾶ).
