Mary Magdalene: The First Pope

The most sacred event in Christianity was the resurrection of Jesus on that first Easter Sunday morning. It was therefore surprising to see that in recording the glorious occasion the four gospels each gave different or confusing accounts of what happened at the tomb. The events at the resurrection would have been thoroughly scrutinized throughout the centuries yet no logical explanation was evident for the conflicting versions in the gospels. But the situation has suddenly changed because a new discovery has come to light, which helps to explain what really took place at the tomb. To understand the recent discovery it is necessary to first summarize three of the gospel accounts of what happened at during the resurrection. In Mark’s gospel Mary Magdalene went to the tomb at the rising of the sun and found the stone rolled aside. She and several other women went into the tomb and saw a young man in shinning apparel. However, in Luke’s gospel Mary Magdalene was in the tomb when two men suddenly stood beside her. Where did they appear from? In John’s gospel Mary Magdalene was on her own when she looked into the tomb and saw two angels sitting at either side of where the head and feet of the body of Jesus had lain. Turning round she saw Jesus but did not recognize him. She ran and told the apostles that the body of the Lord had been taken away. Peter then came to the tomb and looked in but saw only linen clothes. On entering the tomb he also saw a head napkin. Had anybody over the centuries ever asked the most obvious question? How was Mary Magdalene able to see both men and angels at the tomb when Peter saw no one?
