À propos de cet audio

 Raised like sisters, Mariamne and Salome are indulged with riches, position, and learning-a rare thing for females in Jerusalem. But Mariamne has a further gift: an illness has left her with visions; she has the power of prophecy. It is her prophesying that drives the two girls to flee to Egypt, where they study philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy in the Great Library of Alexandria.

After seven years they return to a Judaea where many now believe John the Baptizer is the messiah. Salome too begins to believe, but Mariamne, now called Magdalene, is drawn to his cousin, Yeshu’a, a man touched by the divine in the same way she was during her days of illness. Together they speak of sharing their direct experience of God; but Yeshu’a unexpectedly gains a reputation as a healer, and as the ill and the troubled flock to him, he and Magdalene are forced to make a terrible decision.

This radical retelling of the greatest story ever told brings Mary Magdalene to life-not as a prostitute or demon-possessed-but as an educated woman who was truly the “apostle to the apostles.”©2007 Ki Longfellow; (P)2007 Books on Tape Fiction Historique Moyen-Orient

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Highly original and highly engaging, The Secret Magdalene is a sweeping yet intimate tale, an emotional and intellectual journey that questions everything, including the real nature of Jesus.” –India Edghill, author of Wisdom’s Daughter

“In The Secret Magdalene Ki Longfellow portrays Jesus and Mary Magdalene of the Gnostic Gospel tradition-two great teachers whose friendship blossoms within the political turmoil of first century Palestine. What The DaVinci Code only hinted at, Longfellow brings to life.” –Rebecca Kohn, author of The Gilded Chamber

“Imaginative, well-researched, and full of profound wisdom, this wonderful novel brings the ancient world to life.” –Timothy Freke, co author of The Laughing Jesus

“Superb characterization, a brilliant visual palette, and thorough scholarship. One feels the stone streets of Jerusalem, breathes the air by the stinking salt sea . . . Ki Longfellow’s Mariamne will no doubt eclipse all other representations of Mary Magdalene for some time. The Secret Magdalene is both heartbreaking and inspiring.” –Earl Doherty, author of The Jesus Puzzle

“A beautifully written book, immaculately researched. It moved me to tears . . . I felt if this is not how it was, it is certainly how it should have been.” –BookCrossing.com

in rearibg books on Mary Magdalene one seeks to know her truth deeper. to know the true story of her and yeshua. yet this story seems to defile the sacredness and truth of who they both were. While the story itself was an overly dramatic tale of a woman disguised as a man so that she may study philosophy, and kept me interested as for what it was, a story, iteft me feeling saddened for all that it leaves out..the truth. While we may not kno the details, we at least know that He did arise on the 3rd day. ans yet this most important detail is eliminated. because the write cannot fathom this truth. the writer cannot fathom that Mary did indeed study in Alexandria, however as Mary. And she studied the mystery schools of Isis to become a high priestess. When I read a book on Mary I seek to know her story and history deeper. I do not seek fiction. It would be recommended to such authors who misplace sacred history to at least say the book is a fictional tale with bits of known history and scripture intermingled with its dramatic accounting.

sadly misplaced story
