After two thousand years of flawed history, Saint Mary Magdalene Statue draws her out of the shadows of history and restores her to her rightful place of importance in Christianity. Throughout history, Saint Mary Magdalene Statue has been both revered and reviled, a woman who has taken on many forms—witch, whore, the incarnation of the eternal feminine, the devoted companion (and perhaps even the wife) of Jesus.
Check out the brilliant biography by Bruce Chilton, a renowned biblical scholar who offers the first complete and authoritative portrait of this fascinating woman. Through groundbreaking interpretations of ancient texts, Chilton shows that Mary played a central role in Jesus’ ministry and was a seminal figure in the creation of Christianity.
In Mary Magdalene Biography, Chilton’s descriptions of who Mary Magdalene was and what she did challenge the male-dominated history of Christianity familiar to most readers. Placing Mary within the traditions of Jewish female savants, Chilton presents a visionary figure who was fully immersed in the mystical practices that shaped Jesus’ own teachings and a woman who was a religious master in her own right.
