While we are running through the last preparations for our spiritual journey here in the Provence, I’m finding some time here and there to read books about Marie Magdalene. The following passage is a must read:

„The belief that Jesus was married and had heirs has its origin in Provence. The inhabitants believed that Marie Magdalene, along with her brother, her sister and her closest friends lived in their homeland and were buried there. The legends and names of places in Provence confirm that belief, as well as the secret family trees of its aristocratic families.“

In the dead sea scrolls (Qumram) it states that Marie Magdalene and Jesus were married and had children together. Those writings are not acknowledged by the church.
