Yes, I believe that is true, and she may not have been the only woman to stay around while the men fled. I am not 100% sure of this, but I will say what I think and maybe you can comment. I have heard, that up until Saul of Tarsus (later Paul the Apostle) those Jews were not persecuting women, so maybe the women hung around, because they knew they would be safe, where the men did not. When Saul was persecuting the early church, he did start persecuting women too. As I said, this is what I have heard in the past, but don't know how much validity there is.
