Publisher's Synopsis
""The Mother of Jesus, Not the Papal Mary"" by Edward Jewitt Robinson is a book that explores the historical and biblical evidence surrounding the life of Mary, the mother of Jesus. The author argues that the traditional view of Mary as a perpetual virgin and co-redemptrix is not supported by scripture, and that the Catholic Church's elevation of Mary to a quasi-divine status is not in line with the teachings of Jesus or the early Christian church. Robinson examines the cultural and political context in which the Catholic Church developed its doctrines about Mary, and provides a critical analysis of the theological and philosophical underpinnings of the papal Mary. The book also offers a fresh perspective on the biblical account of Mary, and highlights her role as a faithful and courageous follower of God. Overall, ""The Mother of Jesus, Not the Papal Mary"" is a thought-provoking and well-researched work that challenges traditional views of Mary and invites readers to reconsider their understanding of this important figure in Christian history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
