JOANNA.—The wife of Chuza, the steward of Herod Antipas, one of ‘certain women which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities,’ She ministered to Jesus of her substance, and after the crucifixion helped to anoint His body (Luk_8:3; Luk_24:10).
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


1. Son of Rhesa (Luk_3:27). (See HANANIAH, 7.)
2. Wife of Herod's steward Chuza. She ministered from her substance to Jesus. It is a coincidence obviously undesigned, therefore confirming the truth of the Gospel history, that Herod therein is recorded as having "said to his servants, This is John the Baptist" (Mat_14:2). She being our Lord's disciple He would be naturally often spoken of among Herod's servants, and to them Herod would speak concerning Him, Manaen, Herod's foster brother, was a church teacher subsequently (Act_13:1). Joanna was also one of the women who brought spices early to the Lord's tomb (Luk_24:10).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary

Jo-an'na. (grace or gift of God). (in Revised Version spelled, Joanan).
1. Son of Rhesa, according to the text of Luk_3:27, and one of the ancestors of Christ; but according to the view explained in a previous article, son of Zerubbabel, and the same as Hananiah in 1Ch_3:19.
2. The name of a woman, occurring twice in Luk_8:3; Luk_24:10, but evidently denoting the same person, (A.D. 28-30). In the first passage, she is expressly stated to have been, "wife of Chuza, steward of Herod," that is, Antipas, tetrarch of Galilee.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, was one of those women who, having been cured by our Saviour, followed him as disciples, and ministered to his necessities, Luk_8:3.

jṓ-an?a (Ἰωάνα, Iōána, or Ἰωάννα, Iōánna): The wife of Chuzas, Herod's steward. She was one of the ?women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities? which ?ministered unto him (King James Version, i.e. Jesus, or ?them? the Revised Version (British and American), i.e. Jesus and His disciples) of their substance,? on the occasion of Jesus' tour through Galilee (Luk_8:2, Luk_8:3). Along with other women she accompanied Jesus on His last journey from Galilee to Jerusalem, and was present when His body was laid in the sepulcher (Luk_23:55). She was thus among those who prepared spices and ointments, who found the grave empty, and who ?told these things unto the apostles? (Lk 23:56 through 24:10).

Joan?na, wife of Chuza, the steward of Herod Antipas, the tetrarch of Galilee. She was one of those women who followed Christ, and ministered to the wants of him and his disciples out of their abundance. They had all been cured of grievous diseases by the Savior, or had received material benefits from him; and the customs of the country allowed them to testify in this way their gratitude and devotedness without reproach. It is usually supposed that Joanna was at this time a widow (Luk_8:3; Luk_24:10).
