How does Jesus demonstrate love for His mother in the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus shows love for Mary by honoring her at the cross and providing for her needs through John.

Jesus’ love for His mother Mary is poignantly displayed when He addresses her while being crucified. In John 19:26-27, He entrusts her care to John, saying, 'Woman, behold thy son,' and to John, 'Behold thy mother.' This act underscores both His deep affection for her and His commitment to provide for her even amidst His suffering. It illustrates that His sacrificial role includes not only the fulfillment of divine justice but also the personal care for those He loves, highlighting the compassionate nature of His ministry and the importance He placed on familial relationships.
