The Gospel of Mary Magdalene Unveilled

Unveiling the Gospel: Mary's Vision and the Disciples' Struggle

The Gospel of Mary, also known as the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, is a non-canonical text that provides insights into Mary Magdalene's perspective and teachings. Although fragmented and incomplete, this ancient manuscript has sparked scholarly interest and discussions about the role of Mary Magdalene in early Christianity.

The Gospel of Mary is believed to date back to the 2nd century, and the surviving copies are written in Coptic. The text is part of the Nag Hammadi Library, a collection of Gnostic texts discovered in Egypt in 1945. The Gnostic tradition emphasizes personal spiritual knowledge and experience, often departing from mainstream Christian beliefs.

The Gospel of Mary is divided into several sections, and its content includes dialogues between Mary Magdalene and other disciples, particularly Peter and Andrew. The text begins with a scene after Jesus' resurrection, where Mary shares revelations she received from the risen Christ. The narrative then delves into the disciples' struggle to comprehend and accept Mary's teachings.

One significant aspect of the Gospel of Mary is its portrayal of Mary Magdalene as a prominent disciple with unique insights into Jesus' teachings. In some sections, Mary is depicted as having a closer spiritual connection with Jesus than the other disciples. This has led scholars to explore the role of Mary Magdalene in the early Christian community and question the traditional narrative that often marginalized her.

Throughout the text, Mary emphasizes the importance of inner spiritual knowledge and the journey of the soul. She speaks of the ascent of the soul through various realms and addresses the nature of evil and the human condition. The Gospel of Mary also contains discussions about the material and spiritual worlds, shedding light on Gnostic cosmology and theology.

One notable passage in the Gospel of Mary involves a dispute among the disciples, particularly Peter's resistance to accepting Mary's teachings. This confrontation highlights tensions within the early Christian community regarding authority and the interpretation of Jesus' message. Mary's role as a teacher challenges established hierarchies and invites reflection on the diverse perspectives within the early Christian movement.

The Gospel of Mary concludes with an account of Mary's visions and her departure from the community. The fragmented nature of the text leaves room for interpretation, and scholars continue to debate the significance of Mary Magdalene's role in the early Christian movement based on this gospel.

In summary, the Gospel of Mary offers a unique glimpse into the beliefs and teachings associated with Mary Magdalene in early Christian Gnostic communities. It contributes to ongoing discussions about the diversity of early Christian thought and challenges traditional narratives surrounding certain figures, particularly Mary Magdalene, within the Christian tradition.

The being a repentant sinner and a disciple/apostle is not mutually exclusive but in fact neccessary. Those who walk with Him through the Door and out again to find true pasture, both know and understand Mary very well and know her intimately. The kingdom is within.

This video is about 4 or 5 minutes of useful content stretched out over 21 painful minutes.

Is that an AI David Attenborough I'm hearing?

[lauraoneill]

I think it is righteous that Mary of Magdalene is recognized as an Apostle!....

[AAMARTCLUB]

Once again Mary is silenced as a mansplaining elder paraphrases and projects his own understanding onto the gospel of Mary Magdelaine. What a lost opportunity!! Read out her words! Those who keep her gospel hidden are against Christ😡 as Levi said, Who Are You to deny her?

[hatarismom]

I read this book, short but really important. No wonder organized religion held it out…men…

[DianaDM-MM]

Helloo🧡 If you had the chance to ask Mary Magdalene a question, what would you ask her??

[manorviewclose]

Read it people, this guy has a whole lot of words, pleasant voice, however; he is either purposely throwing you off or he has no clue… on top of reading the gospel of Mary Magdalene, do some research on the cathars and who they followed….

[maybe]

So what does the gospel of Mary really tell us? I dont think you are answering this question. Your big words dint help us at all.

[happyolddude]

🙏Mary Magdalene was an Apostle not a disciple, married to Jesus, she contributed to Journeys on sea with Jesus and Disciples, around the world, such as mostly known in France and Asian countries and Egypt, (Mary Magdalene was Jewish and family was Egyptian and moved to Magdala, ) .... The 4 Mary's moved, Mary Salome her sister, Virgin Mary and Herself "Mary Magdalene she was known in France after the resurrection of Jesus, She had to move to a Town in France not to mention.... She gave birth to a daughter Sarah, she did live a short life and was mummified in the grotto and to confirm it was not Mary Magdalene. The disciples also moved to France but spread separately after the resurrection of Jesus after the 4 Marie's settled in a coastal village the name the of the Towns they moved to May not be mentioned or named. The disciples had to move as well...❤❤❤

[jvlp]

That was a SPIRITUAL Wife and not a Literal Wife... For Christ Jesus is the GROOM (Husband) and the CHURCH (Christianity) is the BRIDE (Wife)... which implies, UNITY/UNITED as ONE with Motherly, Brotherly, and Sisterly LOVE Relationship for one another (foes alike), and not the Romantic/Sexual Love called EROS in Greek...
Facts and Truth of the Matters, Biblically and logically speaking... Praise be to God in Christ... Amen and Amen.

You never got to the point! I came hear to hear what she said.

[maraplantrees]

This has got to be one of the worst documentaries I’ve ever listened to. Whoever wrote the narrative flunked English. It most redundant and boring narrative which offers absolutely no information.

[annebeignatborde]

Everyone seems to be cloning David Attenborough's voice for their AI generated content.
Oh well, off to see if I can find a real human reading this gospel.

[steadyeddie]

So many words, so little information. Whoever wrote this script was bolstered by ego and self importance. More inflated than a bouncy castle!

[Lovealwayswins]

She didn’t start Christianity so please stop gossiping and lying about her.
