Lost for more than fifteen hundred years, the Gospel of Mary
is the only existing early Christian gospel written in the
name of a woman. Karen L. King tells the story of the
recovery of this remarkable gospel and offers a new
translation. This brief narrative presents a radical
interpretation of Jesus' teachings as a path to inner
spiritual knowledge. It rejects his suffering and death as a
path to eternal life and exposes the view that Mary
Magdalene was a prostitute for what it is - a piece of
theological fiction. The Gospel of Mary of Magdala offers a
fascinating glimpse into the conflicts and controversies
that shaped earliest Christianity.
