Mary Magdalene - A Biography

Chilton, Bruce

1st edition hardback in dj, 220 pages, in 'as new' condition. The author is a renowned biblical scholar, who has written an authoritative and complete account of this fascinating woman. Through ground breaking interpretations of ancient texts, Chilton shows that Mary played a central role in the ministry of Jesus and was a seminal figure in the creation of Christianity. He explains why the Gospels say so little about her and why she has been marginalised by the Catholic Church in particular, linking this with Christian misogyny in the ancient world.
