The women who come from Galilee minister to Jesus along the way (27:55). They take the place of angels, who minister to Jesus after the devil has tempted Him (4:11). They are daughters of Peter’s mother-in-law, who rises and ministers to Jesus and the disciples (8:15).
They are among the sheep, who see Jesus hungry, thirsty, naked, a stranger, imprisoned, and serve Him (25:44).
