Of all the New Testament characters, few - other than Jesus himself - have exerted such an enduring fascination as Mary Magdalene, believed by the Church to have been a reformed prostitute. Yet her never-ending appeal is odd for one who appears so briefly - and then so elusively - in the Bible: so what has made her so entrancing to generations of Christians and non-Christians alike?

And why is she intimately connected with both the cult of the Black Madonnas and the legend of the Queen of Sheba?This eBook is the complete and ad-free written work on Mary Magdalene from TempleofMysteries.com
