HER STORY: Christ's Ministry, Mary of Magdala

We’ll first follow Mary through the years she was a student and supporter of Jesus, then we will spend most of our time in the Garden with Mary at Christ’s empty tomb #MaryofMagdala #Magdelene #Resurrection #EmptyTomb #GardenTomb

Throughout his ministry, Jesus gathered around him men and women who became a community of 120 people joined in their love for and faith in Jesus. And one of those women was Mary of Magdala. She is mentioned fourteen times, in all four Gospels, and her name is almost always placed first, seemingly implying she was first in service, first in support. However, Mary’s most significant story appears…

Magdalene

by The 502s

A Fawn at Oxford, 1950s

Albert Flint

“All four gospels witness to Mary Magdalene as the premier witness to the resurrection - alone or in a group, but in all cases named by name. . . All four gospels insist that when the other disciples are fleeing, Mary Magdalene stands firm. She does not run, she does not betray or lie about her commitment, she witnesses. But why, one wonders, do the Holy Week liturgies tell and re-tell Peter's threefold denial of Jesus, while the steady, unwavering witness of Magdalene is not even noticed? How would our understanding of the Paschal Mystery change if [the role of Magdalene was acknowledged?] What if, instead of emphasizing that Jesus died alone and rejected, we reinforced that one stood by him and did not leave? For surely this other story is as deeply and truly there in the scripture as is the first. How would this change the emotional timbre of the day? How would it affect our feelings about ourselves? About the place of women in the church? About the nature of redemptive love?”

Anyone else's magic/practice NOT actually use Satan/Devil worship buut you still use iconography of The Devil since "if you're gonna call me a Devil worshipper i may as well 🤷".

Plus it fits with the Horned God look/symbolism.

Niccolò dell’Arca - complete seven-figure grouping of Lamentation over the Dead Christ - terrracotta - 1463

Lamentation over Dead Christ is a sculptural group of seven terracotta figures  housed in the “Sanctuary of Santa Maria della Vita” — a Baroque church in Bologna, Italy. The work is composed of life-size figures in terracotta displaying dramatic pathos. The expressions of grief and torment on the faces is intensified by the realism of their dramatic facial details. Christ is at the center lying with his head reclining on a pillow. Around him are the other figures, Mary of Cleophas and at the feet of Christ, Mary Magdalene, torn by pain with clothes swelled by the wind. The other figures are more composed, even as their faces show their pain and grief. The Madonna has her hands folded and clenched. Mary, the mother of James the Greater and John the Evangelist, is shown squeezing her thighs in a gesture of regret, while Saint John is silently weeping, with a palm under his chin. Detached from the other witnesses is the figure kneeling in Renaissance clothes, on the left, representing the artist Giuseppe D’Arimatea and looking towards the observer. The drama and the pathos of some of these figures are unrivaled in the art and culture of the time. Scholars argue that Niccolò dell’Arca drew inspiration from the realistic sculpture of Burgundy, with its focus on Renaissance Humanism. The Burgundian elements in his sculpture are attributed by some art historians to his work in Naples with the Catalan sculptor Guillem Sagrera who influenced by his style. Others reject this theory and suggest that he traveled to France in the late 1460s and then worked in Siena, where he was influenced by the works of Jacopo della Quercia and Donatello.

The theme of the Lamentation of Christ is common in medieval and Renaissance art, although this treatment by Niccolò dell’Arca is unusual for the period.
