内容简介
After two thousand years of flawed history, here at last is a
magnificent new biography of Mary Magdalene that draws her out of
the shadows of history and restores her to her rightful place of
importance in Christianity.Throughout history, Mary Magdalene 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. In this
brilliant new biography, Bruce Chilton, a renowned biblical
scholar, 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.
Chilton’s de*ions 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.
