Mary Magdalene was Mary Magdalene before she met Jesus and afterwards! ....This was a woman from Magdala, a town on the western bank of the Sea of Galilee. Jesus cast seven demons out of her (Luke 8:2). To associate this woman with a past history of immorality and to identify her as the "sinner" -- which probably means prostitute -- of Luke 7:37 is unfounded and most likely incorrect, because Mary Magdalene attained a position of prominence in the Gospels and became the leader among the women who followed Christ. The inference can be drawn from the accounts of Mary in the Gospels that she was a woman of some wealth who not only traveled with Christ but who, along with Joanna and Susanna, lent financial support to His ministry (Luke 8:1-3). She ministered to our Lord before and after His resurrection (Matt. 27:56). It was a woman who first saw the risen Christ, and that woman was Mary Magdalene (see John 20). ..... I would fervently urge all readers to take the Gospel accounts of Mary Magdalene and utterly dismiss the innuendos in the rock opera "Jesus Christ, Superstar" and other vicious rumors that have been spread about Mary Magdalene. There is not an ounce of truth in any of them. The moment man begins to speculate and interpolate on the Scriptures is the moment when he begins to err. --Hank | ||||||
