Perhaps no figure in biblical scholarship has been the subject of more controversy and debate than Mary Magdalene. Although she is discussed in the gospels of Philip, Thomas, Peter, and Bartholomew—in the collection of writings known as the Gnostic gospels that were rejected by the early Christian church—there is no better insight into this mysterious and influential woman than Mary's own gospel. The gospel text and the spiritual interpretation of Jean-Yves Leloup reveal unique teachings that emphasize the eminence of the divine feminine and an abiding love of nature over the dualistic and ascetic interpretations of Christianity presented elsewhere. What emerges from this important source text and commentary is a renewal of the sacred feminine in the Western spiritual tradition and a new vision for Christian thought and faith throughout the world.
