She Thought He Was the Gardener: Mary Magdalene at the Tomb
🌅 Since the first week of Great Lent this blog has been walking through the lives of men and women in Scripture.
Adam. Eve. Cain. Noah. Abraham. Sarah. Hagar. Jacob. The Theotokos at the Cross. The Good Thief.
Today we arrive at the first Paschal face.
Mary Magdalene. Who came to the tomb in the dark. Who stayed when others left. Who thought the risen Christ was the gardener. Who heard her name and turned and knew.
The series has been moving toward this garden since the first post.
The gate that closed on Adam has opened here. In a garden. At dawn. In one word spoken to a weeping woman.
First Paschal reflection now on the blog.
