WHO WAS MARY MAGDALENE?
At the Crucifixion and Resurrection, there is a mysterious woman who
is present, named
Mary Magdalene.
*****THIS WAS ME SOPHIA OF WISDOM III THIS SOUL MATE FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME...

Some say she was the wife of Jesus.

Others say she was a prostitute freed by Jesus.

was an esoteric figure of a secret royal line in France.

SOPHIA OF WISDOM III - THE SEEDS OF LIFE
The Biblical evidence identifies a woman who anoints Jesus with an alabaster
box at the house of a Pharisee named Simon as
"a woman of the city who was a sinner."[Lk 7:37]
Jesus then forgives her all her sins, which sins He says, "are many."
*****THIS WAS CAROLYN BESSETTE
In the very next section, we are told that Mary Magdalene,
"out of whom He had cast seven demons,"
***CAROLYN BESSETTE HAD SEVEAL OTHER DEMON SPIRITS IN HER AND THEY SPELLED HIM TO PULL ONE
AY TIME OUT AND HAVE SEX WITH THEM...
AND THESE ARE THEIR JUMPERS BOOTS...THIS HOW THEY JUMP IN TIME...
SOPHIA OF WISDOM III - THE SEEDS OF LIFE
had begun following Jesus and the Apostles
[Lk 8:2].
SOPHIA OF WISDOM III - THE SEEDS OF LIFE
Jesus says that because the
woman had been forgiven much, she loved Him much
[Lk 7:47].
***THIS WAS NINA ALVES THE WHORE SEE #6...
Many have assumed this woman is Mary Magdalene and that she was some sort of prostitute because
"woman of the city"
****THIS WAS CAROLYN BESSETTE AND SEVERAL OTHERS...AND I SOPHIA OF WISDOM
III WAS NOT ON THIS ORMUS SEX TRIP...
could have that meaning in some situations.
The text does not explicitly identify the woman as
Mary Magdalene or as a prostitute, however.
Luke does say Mary had had seven demons cast out of her and responded by following Jesus.
It must have been clear to Luke as he wrote that the strong similarity between these two women
and their juxtaposition
***THIS MEANS THE MAN HAD A PENIS ON HIS HEAD AND THE WOMAN HAD A VIRGINA ON HER HEAD AND
THEY HAD SEX...
in immediate succession would
lead many to identify the two as the same person.
***THIS MEANS LISA TOMMASO & LISA GONZALES ARE WALKINS AND CAN SHARE
THE SAME BODY...
The gospels often go
to some pains to avoid such confusion, for example, when John speaks
of "Judas" at the Last Supper and adds, "not the Iscariot."
***THAT HE WAS NOT THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THIS CASE...
So by failing to clarify that Mary Magdalene is not the same woman, Luke in effect is
allowing us to make that identification.
This, if correct, would lead us to a second conclusion very rapidly,
for the anointing
of Jesus is REQUIRED by an express command of Jesus
to be recorded whenever the gospel is preached [Mt 26:13]. Therefore,
because the ONLY anointing Luke records is the one by that "woman of the city," we must conclude that this is the same anointing
as we see
recorded in the other gospels. Note what the other accounts add:
The anointing is in the house of Simon THE LEPER of BETHANY and the box contained "VERY PRECIOUS"
ointment [Mt 26:6-13].
This anointing of Jesus is followed WITHOUT A BREAK by Judas betraying Jesus, implying a
direct
link between the anointing and Judas' decision [Mt 26:14-15].
Mark adds the fact that this ointment in Simon's house was of a very precious substance called
"SPIKENARD"--but someone complains, "Why was
this WASTE of the ointment made?
****BECAUSE JESUS/JFK,JR. WAS A FLAVUS NOT A KING OR GOD....A MYSTICAL BEING THAT WHEN MARY
MAGDALENE HIS SOUL MATE FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME WOULD MAKE A COMMANDMENT HE WOULD MYSTICALLY WOULD GO AND DO THE
ORDER AND COME BACK MISSION COMPLETE... SO WHEN THE OTHER MARY OR CAROLYN BESSETTE POURED THE SPIKNARD ALL OVER JESUS/JFK,JR.
HE WAS MARKED FOR DEATH BECAUSE HE WAS HIGHER THAN A KING OR GOD AND NOW MARY MAGDALENE DIDN'T HAVE HER FLAVUS...
1ST SON
For it might have been SOLD FOR MORE
THAN 300 PENCE."[Mk 14:3-5] That equals a YEAR'S
WAGES in those days,
or roughly $20,000 in modern terms.
Obviously, this was a black-market ointment, something ILLEGAL, such as oil used to anoint
someone KING.
John, at last, completes the story: The woman who anoints Jesus is none other than Mary
of Bethany, the SISTER OF MARTHA AND LAZARUS.
So the woman was named MARY after all. And because she and her sister are
supposed
to serve guests in this house, a house we can now identify as the house of Simon the Pharisee, a "leper" (which some say was
a coded
way of identifying a person who advocated independence from Rome, and
who was ostracized like a leper on the
Sanhedrin), we must see Simon as the FATHER of Mary, Martha and Lazarus.
Now it becomes clear why these three siblings are living in the same house; it is the family
estate.
We know that Lazarus is wealthy when we are told of the huge crowds that gather when Jesus
raises Lazarus from the dead.
Bethany was on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives
--prime real estate. Yet
Lazarus' family owns a large enough estate to have this huge throng there ("the WHOLE WORLD has gone after Him"), and A private
tomb on the property of a PHARISEE who would want to maintain
ritual purity by keeeping his house as far from a tomb as
possible.
Simon is a wealthy Pharisee living on choice property near Jerusalem with a house big enough
to sleep several adult men and women.
It is his daughter who anoints Jesus with contraband royal ointment in his
presence at
a dinner in honor of his son Lazarus.
This explains why a Pharisee would allow a "woman of the city who
was a sinner" into his
house and let her POUR HER OINTMENT ALL OVER JESUS AND ONTO HIS FLOOR.
Pharisees would NEVER permit a STRANGER to enter their home who might be "unclean" and pour
oil of UNKNOWN origin
onto their floor.
(She wipes the oil on Jesus' feet also.) For the ritually pure Pharisees this
was anathema.
But if this is his very
own daughter, a woman he knew, and if he knew exactly where that
oil
had come from, then the mystery vanishes.
THE ANOINTING OIL
So where did that oil come from?
The term "SPIKE-nard" is very misleading. The Greek actually
calls
it "GENUINE nard"--which the translators change to "SPIKE-nard" on the
assumption that some copyist made a mistake.
But the correct reading
of "GENUINE" has awesome implications. It signifies that this was the
GENUINE anointing
oil. In other words, THE GENUINE royal anointing oil of the priests and kings.
The oil of KING DAVID. Of the MESSIAH, the ANOINTED One.
No wonder Jesus insisted they include this story in every telling of the gospel.
This was His official anointing as Priest and King.
[The ancient origin of this alabaster box of oil is detailed in an extensive audio/printed
report called "THE SECRETS OF PETRA." It is far too much to cover on the web. Copies can be ordered via our NEWS
& UPDATES page.]
But could a fallen woman anoint Jesus Priest and King?
MARY "THE MAGDALENE" AND HER FATHER NICODEMUS
Mary and Martha are grown women living in their father's house on a
large estate.
This is most unusual. Ordinarily the only way a woman
would return to her father's
house was by being widowed or divorced or
if her husband had gone on a long journey and left her otherwise alone.
The Talmud has a curious story about a man named Nicodemus. It says
he was one of
the richest men in Jewish history. This Nicodemus had two
daughters named Mary and Martha: Martha was a widow
who returned to her
father Nicodemus' house, while Mary had married an extremely rich man
and had brought him a huge
dowry. The Talmud does not say why Mary was
living at home, but we may assume her husband travelled a great deal.
The Talmud places this story 30 years AFTER the Biblical Nicodemus--
a generation later.
Tradition says that Nicodemus and his whole family
were ARRESTED because of their Christianity.
All were exiled to Gaul
by 37 AD, except Nicodemus, who is said to have seen them sail off from
Caesarea. Yet
the Talmud seems to place the family a generation later.
But according to Psalm 109, people convicted of capital crimes--and
the book of Acts says
that professing Christianity had become a capital
crime--had their NAMES BLOTTED OUT "unto
the second generation." So it
was FORBIDDEN for the rabbis to publicly discuss or write about someone who
had been blotted out, as Nicodemus and his family had been.
By the shifting of the "time" of the Talmudic stories 30
years later, rabbis
could write about blotted-out events during the "forbidden" period.
We have many Talmudic stories about Jesus, Lazarus and other blotted-out
New Testament figures, which also exhibit a similar time-shift.
SOPHIA OF WISDOM III - THE SEEDS OF LIFE
It appears, therefore, that the Talmud has coyly "resurrected" some
forbidden history of
the family of Nicodemus and Mary Magdalene, which
shows she was married to one of the richest men in her world. Who
could
that be?
MARY AND JOSEPH, THE "OTHER HOLY FAMILY"...
The term "Nicodemus" means "innocent of blood" and is hardly a name
one receives at birth.
So "Simon" might well be his given name. When
Jesus is condemned by the Sanhedrin, the vote has to be UNANIMOUS.
****THIS MEANS THAT THEY ARE NOT THE DIVINE COUPLE
AND THEY ARE THE SAME SEX AND THEY MAKE AN IMPLOSION IN THE SHELL OF THE SPERM...
Yet we know that two members, Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus do not feel
Jesus is guilty.
This can only mean that Caiaphas the High Priest held
their proxies and cast their votes for them.
The Talmud and other sources reveal that Joseph and Nicodemus were
wealthy men who travelled
far from Jerusalem, in the metals and grain trades respectively. Because they were not always available to vote,
they
had to give their proxies to the High Priest.
Nicodemus was a "RULER" of the people on the Sanhedrin, a man of
great wealth (he held
a monopoly on grain in Jerusalem). His friend
Joseph of Arimathea was in similar circumstances. Undoubtedly,
both
men often travelled together for months at a time.
But why did they bury Jesus together?
The Jewish law of burial left a man UNCLEAN for handling a dead body
--which would
have prevented these men from eating the Passover, if we
accept John's gospel [Jn 18:28]. But the NEXT OF KIN were
REQUIRED to
bury their family members. That means both men were related to Jesus.
Catholic tradition makes Joseph the UNCLE of Jesus' mother, Mary, but
they also say he
was YOUNGER than Mary. The Church has evolved a view
of Mary as staying a virgin AFTER giving birth to Jesus, and
this led it
to elevate Mary to a semi-divine status Rome feels is incompatible with
her having any siblings. The
idea is that her mother Anna had no other
children but Mary. But the starting point of this odd logic is Rome's
belief
in Mary remaining virgin AFTER giving birth to Jesus, an idea the
Bible goes to great lengths to refute:
The Bible declares, for example, that Mary lost her virginity at the
birth of Jesus [Lk
2:23; Is 66:9; Rev 12:4], had sex with her husband
[Mt 1:25], and was mother to many other children after Jesus [Mt 12:46-47;
13:55-57;
27:56,61; 28:1; Mk 6: 3-4; and many other similar passages]. To
maintain the myth of Mary keeping her virginity even after
giving birth,
Rome decided in 1871 that Mary had herself had a miraculous birth without
original sin and without any
siblings. This meant Joseph of Arimathea
had to be pushed back another generation BEFORE Mary, even though he was
younger
than Mary and was said to outlive her by 15 or 20 years.
This confusion vanishes in light of the Biblical verses cited above,
which removes the
need to falsify Mary's family structure. Joseph was her
younger brother, uncle to Jesus. When their father, Heli
Joachim, died,
Joseph took over the family's seat on the Jewish Sanhedrin. If this were
not so, Jesus could not
be David's heir. The "honored seat" Joseph held
on the Council was, of course, the seat of the House of David, the
KING'S
SEAT. Jesus sat on it at age 12 [Lk 2:41-51]. Joseph of Arimathea had
to adopt Jesus by Jewish law
if he believed Jesus to be legitimate, for
Joseph was the male elder of the family and a brother had to adopt his
sister's
unheired sons.
Had Joseph been an uncle of Mary the line of inheritance would have
deviated away from
Jesus: Mary would not have had it to pass down to
Jesus in the flesh. Rome's efforts to deify Mary deny Jesus
the throne
of David by natural inheritance, contrary to Scripture [Lk 1:31-33].
So Joseph of Arimathea was obligated to adopt Jesus. The adoption
papers are quoted
by Luke in chapter 3 of his gospel. Rome admits the
genealogy there is that of Mary's side of the family, but ignores
the
fact that the "Joseph" who is adopting Jesus is her brother by using
the bizarre argument that her husband acquired
his wife's genealogy by
adopting Jesus--even though the whole point of adoption was the reverse
situation: To
give Jesus the adopting male's genealogy. Had this male
been Joseph the "Carpenter" of the line of Jeconiah, whose
descendents
were cursed from sitting upon the throne, Jesus would have been cut out
of the royal inheritance like all
other men of Jeconiah's line. Only
a BROTHER of Mary could adopt Jesus and keep Jesus in the royal line of
succession
as the heir of David:
"When Jesus was about to be thirty years of age, He became by
custom [by adoption]
the son of Joseph, the son of Heli..."
[Lk 3:23, literal rendering]
All this means that Joseph of Arimathea had to be married to a woman
of very wealthy and
high status. Only such a woman would be suitable to
wed a man who held his position. Nicodemus married his
daughter Mary to
such a man. Could Mary be Joseph's wife?
The gospels state that Jospeh of Arimathea [the city of Matthew: See
his genealogy] buried
Jesus in his own UNUSED tomb in Jerusalem. Joseph
had acquired it RECENTLY, for no one in his family had died and
ever been
buried in it; yet the average age of death in those days was under thirty,
with many babies born dead.
This can only mean that Joseph had obtained
the site during his life and did not inherit it.
The common way such a tomb would come into a family was as part of a
DOWRY. But if
Joseph married Mary of BETHANY of the Mount of Olives,
then the dowry tomb would have been on the Mount of Olives and the
site
of the Crucifixion must have been near Bethany at the summit of the
Mount. This is in fact the case [See
the link below to our discussion
of "THE CRUCIFIXION"].
Now we can see that Mary was a woman of great importance. To gain a
tomb on the summit
of Olivet was one of the most sought-after desires
of every Jewish person, but hardly anyone could achieve it. Joseph
was
given a piece of land when he married Mary that he would LITERALLY die
for. But if he were to divorce her,
it would revert to Nicodemus.
THE FAMILY LINE OF MARY MAGDALENE
This man Nicodemus was not only a member of the Sanhedrin, but a rabbi
and Pharisee and
a ruler of the people. All this makes him one of the
CHIEF SCRIBES.
The house of Benjamin was given the right to keep the
written genealogies of the priests
and kings to decide which persons were
entitled to inherit. The Torah says Benjamin will "DIVIDE the SPOILS"--
that
is, the inheritiances of Israel.
Benjamin was allotted six seats on the Council.
One of these seats
was occupied by the chief elder of the tribe, the RULER of it.
John
calls Nicodemus a "RULER" and implies Nicodemus is the chief elder.
We know from 1 Chronicles 5 that the elders of Benjamin were expected
to live in Jerusalem,
and that included Olivet.
The grain monopoly he
held indicates that his family had PRE-EMINENCE.
To have absolute and
total control over the food supply of Jerusalem is hardly the kind
of
thing a lesser line of Benjamin would inherit. Nicodemus had to be of
the chief family--hence the HEAD of the
tribe.
But there's a catch. In Benjamin, the WOMEN pass down the line of
inheritance. Not Lazarus,
but Nicodemus' elder daughter Mary was the
heir of the line. Her son would sit on the Sanhedrin.
The term for the one who holds the authority is "PILLAR" (from the
idea that the family
is a kind of building and a pillar is the most
prominent support of the edifice, hence the regal building block of a
family
or institution).
In Hebrew, "pillar" is a "M'GD'L" or "magdal." So the name "Mary,
the
Magadalene" means
"Mary the Pillar (of her tribe)." She was the
chief heir
of the tribe of Benjamin.
To compare how this title was used in the Bible, the term used to
describe "The High Priest" in Hebrew was
"Ha-Kohen Ha-Gadol" or "The
Priest,
The Pillar"--that is, he was the SUPREME Priest of the tribe,
the Chief elder of Levi.
Mary is called
"Ma-Gadol-aH-eN" or "Great
Pillar
Female One"--that is, she was the
"Great Supreme Woman" of her
tribe: Benjamin.
Now we see her conferring her tribal honor on Jesus, making Jesus
the heir of Benjamin
by adoption through her husband Joseph. That had
the effect of giving Jesus the LEGAL RIGHT TO OFFICIALLY APPOINT
what HE
called "SCRIBES of the Kingdom"--the writers of a NEW testament.
But the
tribe of Benjamin could do more than keep written records that DESIGNATED
the
Priest and King.
It could ANOINT them.
When Mary brought out the "GENUINE Nard" and anointed Jesus, she was
declaring Jesus the
OFFICIAL King. Jesus observed that she in effect had
anointed Him for BURIAL. Why?
Because it was ILLEGAL and He now reeked
of contraband oil.
The penalty was death under Rome's law.
But her anointing seems so informal, so loving and casual. Or is it?
The gospels say she stood behind Him and poured it all out upon His
head and wiped the
residue on His feet with her hair. This act of hers
in STANDING BEHIND HIM AND POURING IT ON HIS HEAD is standard
practice
for an OFFICIAL ROYAL ANOINTING. Apparently she did not intend to pour
it all out, and when she did,
she tried to wipe it up with her hair.
But Jesus chooses to emphasize her love and His forgiveness of her
prior sins "which were
many." What had Joseph of Arimathea's wife done
to be regarded as such a sinner?
John records the Sanhedrin bringing a woman to Jesus who was caught
"in the very act" of
adultery. Jesus is asked to JUDGE her. Only her
husband, her father, and her eldest son had this right.
The reason is
that each had a LEGAL STAKE IN THE DOWRY. If found guilty, a divorce
would cause the dowry to revert
to her father's house. Jesus as Mary's
male heir, albeit by adoption, had a legal basis for judging her.
When Jesus sets her "free," He does so conditionally. "Where are they
who accuse
you?"--meaning her father and husband. No doubt they were off
on one of their merchant trips, which is why Mary had
gotten into trouble
out of loneliness. While Jesus had saved her life for the moment, she
was still under a kind
of "house-arrest" pending the return of Joseph and
Nicodemus. A woman left alone for months or even years at a time
could
easily fall into adultery. And could be forgiven for her weakness.
However, NO CHILD SHE BORE AFTER THIS COULD INHERIT...and certainly
not the throne of David!
Orthodox rabbis still hold to this rule.
Even if Mary were the wife of Jesus as some claim, it would be of no
inheritance
value to her descendents. All her subsequent offspring in
the aftermath of adultery would be legally bastards with
NO CLAIM ON
ANY INHERITANCE OR ROYAL THRONE.
Therefore, all those pretenders who are now claiming to be the heirs
of David through Jesus
and Mary Magdalene are claiming an inheritance
that cannot exist. Most of them cite an "heir" produced long after
Mary's
sexual escapades (if she had any; being caught public embrace of
one not your spouse could in some cases be "in the act"
of adultery).
WAS JESUS MARRIED AT ALL?
Aside from the obvious fact that much of the New Testament is about
Jesus as the Bridegroom
of the Church, the Bride of Christ, how could
Jesus have married? No father would have married his daughter to this
man
whom the general public believed was a result of fornication with an
UNKNOWN FATHER. (The Talmud later suggested the father
of Jesus might be
a gentile Roman soldier, ie an uncircumcised rapist.) Even Mary's about-
to-be husband Joseph was
ready to divorce her over this issue [Mt 1:19].
Even if Joseph had tried to marry Jesus off under his own name, it was
a problem,
for his line carried the CURSE of Jeconiah. In fact, it is a
well-documented tradition that his own first-born, James,
never married.
This hardly boded well for Jesus. James would not have made a decision
to be celebate at 13 because
of some Christian piety, for James did not
yet believe in Jesus as the Christ. James simply could not be married
because
of the family curse, which he carried as first-born of Joseph.
Even if James had not inherited that curse, all Mary's children
were also
tainted by her first supposed "illigitimate" birth.
(Joseph's marriage to Mary was by special circumstance as we discuss
in our article
about him [coming soon]. Briefly, Joseph innocently put
Mary's father in a position where he had to let her marry
Joseph.)
So Jesus could not be married until He was adopted by a man without
the curse, namely Joseph
of Arimathea, His wealthy and powerful uncle.
One could argue that Jesus waited until He was thirty to be adopted and
get
married. But that is exactly what the New Testament says: Jesus was
going around the land "wooing" a Bride, the Church.
The marriage feast at Cana is sometimes said to be His marriage to
Mary Magdalene...or
somebody. The "bridegroom" is not named; so the now
critics want to assert he is Jesus because His family is invited
to the
wedding. But John says Jesus was "INVITED" to the wedding. However, a groom is never invited to his
own wedding!
He and the bride don't get
invitations to their wedding; they or their parents are the
ones who do
the inviting. [Jn 2:2]
If Jesus is the bridegroom, why is He unconcerned that the guests to
His own wedding have
no wine? Why does His mother have to urge Him to
act against His inclination? Why does Mary have to tell the
staff to
obey the bridegroom?
This makes no sense at all. On the other hand, if Jesus is merely a GUEST, it makes
perfect sense.
It could be one of His
younger sisters getting married, which would explain why the
staff obeys Mary, but must be instructed to obey Jesus.
WAS JESUS A RABBI WHO HAD TO BE MARRIED?
This absurd argument flies in the face of the express statement of
John's gospel that Jesus
had "NEVER studied" under the rabbis or the
scribes in Jerusalem or apparently ANYWHERE:
"And the Jews marveled, saying, 'How does this man have learning, having NEVER studied?'"
[Jn 7:15]
Jesus TAUGHT, but He had no formal training, and was therefore NOT an OFFICIAL rabbi, who
had to be married under the rules.
Jesus was a
"small r" rabbi, an unofficial teacher, as John states. Being unable
to marry, Jesus could not qualify to study under the official rules.
All throughjout the gospels we are told how the scribes and Pharisees, the OFFICIAL teachers
of the people, were jealous of Jesus, spied on
His teaching, tried to discredit Him, etc. If Jesus had credentials from them, they
would have boasted of Him.
But He did not. Jesus was
a COMPETITOR, and outsider, someone they had NOT taught,
a teacher who had his learning directly from God, Nicodemus concluded.
Which brings us to how Nicodemus could find Jesus so easily at night in that house at Bethany, coming to Him "secretly" by night.
He simply walked down the hall and knocked on His door. After all, it was his
own house, and Jesus was his grandson by adoption.
And that explains why Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea were the two men who were required
by law to bury Jesus: His adoptive father and
maternal uncle and His adoptive grandfather, respectively.
It also
explains why Mary Magdalene, his adoptive mother, was at the tomb with
His natural mother Mary and her sister Salome.
As for the business about Mary calling Jesus "rabboni"--it was her
proper title for the
heir of the family and the person who had saved
her life and was now sort of her "parole officer" and responsible for
her
behavior in the future.
He had become a legal guardian over her,
because her continued life was His responsibility,
having let her go
after her capital crime, under the Law of Moses, of adultery.
We see Jesus' authority over Mary at Lazarus' funeral.
As the true
elder of her family, Mary was sitting in official mourning in the house
to
receive visitors, as Jewish custom required (and still does). She
could only leave the house under very special circumstances.
It would be like calling the bride away from the midst of her wedding to give her a message.
But because Jesus was acting as a kind of warden over her--she was a convicted felon on parole
in the eyes of the law--Mary
had to obey Jesus who held custody over her, in effect.
It had not a thing to do with her being His wife, as many mistakenly assume.
Why
would she have been under some strange obligation to remain inside her
BROTHER'S
house as a wifely duty?
There is no such custom. She was
the chief official mourner, a role that fell to
the eldest woman.
It had nothing to do with marriage or Jesus.
SUMMARY
All the "evidence" about Jesus and Mary Magdalene being married to
each other collapses
when examined closely.
The ulterior motives of a
few royal lines in Europe in asserting an inheritance back to
Jesus
from Mary Magdalene have produced a slew of specious arguments which
are flatly contradicted by the very Bible
passages they cite and by the
known practices and customs of the Jewish people at the time.
Jesus has a Bride to which He has pledged to come back. It is the
Bride of Christ,
the true spiritual body of believers. The whole idea
is that the New Covenant is a spiritual MARRIAGE covenant with
this
Bride, not a sexual union.
While she may well be among the saints He
will raise up and "wed" at His coming, Mary is
but one of the many in
the Church.
If she were His carnal wife, His future "wedding feast"
would be confused and distorted,
Indeed, it would have been ADULTERY,
in a technical legal sense, for Jesus to have been seeking to create a
marriage
covenant with the Church while married to Mary. He would have been unfaithful to her.
The whole idea would defile the entire basis
of the New Covenant relationship: That
Jesus is an UNMARRIED King who
is "betrothed" to the Church [Ephesians 5:21-33].
