Mary as the Early Christians Knew Her: The Mother of Jesus in Three Ancient Texts

Mary as the Early Christians Knew Her: The Mother of Jesus in Three Ancient Texts - Frederica Mathewes-green

Mary as the Early Christians Knew Her: The Mother of Jesus in Three Ancient Texts

RThe Mary that Frederica Mathewes-Green gives us in these winsome texts--a palpably real woman at once humble and exhalted--transcends the differences that persist even today among the main streams of the Christian tradition, not least because this Mary points beyond herself to the ultimate source of our hope and our joy.S--John Wilson, editor "Books & Culture."

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.

- How did the first Christians view her?
- What were the commonly understood facts about the Blessed Mother's early life, before the Annunciation?
- How did Mary, the mother of Jesus, become the Theotokos?

This book gives some surprising insights.
