hi, i cant provide you with any links but i am currently reading EXTRAVAGANT WORSHIP by DARLENE SZHECK. In one of the first pages of the book, Mary Magdalene was featured as one of the women in the bible who was so in love with the Lord that she had extravagantly worshiped Him. Her tears were enough to
wet Jesus' foot, the perfume he has poured at Jesus' feet were one year's worth of wage at their time. So extravagant was her love for the Lord.
I hope you could read the book. I bought it at National Bookstore at less than P200.
Just so you could refer to one of the chapters discussed in the book, read below.
From Luke 7:
36Now one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, so he went to the Pharisee's house and reclined at the table. 37When a woman who had lived a sinful life in that town learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume, 38and as she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.
39When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, "If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner."
40Jesus answered him, "Simon, I have something to tell you."
"Tell me, teacher," he said.
41"Two men owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii,[d] and the other fifty. 42Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he canceled the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?"
43Simon replied, "I suppose the one who had the bigger debt canceled."
"You have judged correctly," Jesus said.
44Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. 47Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—for she loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little."
mary magdalene was jesus christ's wife.
it was a good book but was inaccurately done.
may i ask, what were the accounts that made you convinced enough to draw the conclusion
about this association aside from the books
like da vinci, holy grail, gospel of judas, gospel of magdalene etc etc...
im just curious, what among those speculations in books of about the passion of jesus & magdalene
that made you reall say with conviction:
"mary magdalene was jesus christ's wife"
