Description: |
This book is an attempt to reconstruct the everyday life of Mary, the mother of Jesus, in the context of the religious and social environment prevalent in Jewish society during the reign of the Herods.
The author tries to place in its historical and cultural perspective what might have been the life Mary had led in Nazareth for forty years as a simple Jewish woman; what would have been her religious obligations, her family duties and her social position as a Jewish maiden, wife, mother and lastly as a widow.
In this, her private life, the Jewess Mary steps down from the altars on which she has been enthroned...becomes once more the humble and simple woman, wife of Joseph, mother of Jesus. |
