Exegesis
The clause opens with the articular subject phrase he de Maria {ἡ δὲ Μαρία | hē dè María}, where the postpositive de links to the preceding narrative and shifts emphasis.
The coordinated phrase kai Maria hē Iōsētōs {καὶ Μαρία ἡ Ἰωσῆτος | kaí María hē Iōsētōs} parallels that structure to present “Mary, the mother of Joses,” with the genitive of relationship specifying her familial tie.
Root and etymology
Miryammem–resh–yod–mem
“beloved, wished-for child”
In context — Mark 15:47
And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses were observing where He was laid.
