What is the truth about the "other Mary"-one of the most important female figures of the New Testament; second only to Mary the Mother? Although nearly written out of the Biblical Gospels as merely a redeemed "fallen woman;" Mary Magdalene is the secret Gnostic Gospels' major character after Jesus himself. The Gnostic Gospel of Mary; for example; states that after the crucifixion; the apostles were rallied with an impassioned and enlightened sermon given by Mary Magdalene; and the Gospel of Thomas relates that Jesus called her "The Woman Who Knows All." Undoing centuries of confusion and cover-up; Mary Magdalene: Christianity's Hidden Goddess will startle even contemporary Christians who have used her example to argue for the ordination of women and New Age believers who hail her as a feminine archetype of the "goddess."

No more re-reading the same paragraph several times trying to compare the narrative to the maps. I highly recommend it to anyone wishing a more detailed insight to the life; and death; of civil war infantry regiments.I look forward to the author's next book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
