Title: Mary as the Early Christians Knew Her: The Mother of Jesus in Three Ancient Texts By: Frederica Mathewes-Green Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 196 Vendor: Paraclete Press | Publication Date: 2013 Weight: 3 ounces ISBN: 1612613438 ISBN-13: 9781612613437 Stock No: WW613437 |
Mathewes-Green opens up "The Gospel of Mary" to see her early life, offering a window into her centrality to the Christian Faith in new and sometimes startling ways. Christians have alternatively raised the status of the mother of Jesus to that of her Son or ignored her entirely. Behind all of the images is a girl who grew up to be the mother of Christ.
This book gives some surprising insights.
This book was published in hardcover as The Lost Gospel of Mary.
