Who was the woman who wiped Jesus' face on the way to the cross?


The Bible does not record the account of a woman wiping Jesus’ face with the towels. The tradition is that the woman’s name was Veronica. This tradition is very old, but there is no way to know if there is any truth to it. However, since the Bible does not say, we should not give the account any authority. If this event was important, it would have been mentioned in the Gospel accounts of the crucifixion.
