The Gnostic Gospels Of Philip, Mary Magdalene, And Thomas

And the companion (Consort) was Mary of Magdala (Mary Magdalene). The Lord

loved Mary more than all the other disciples and he kissed her often on her

mouth (the text is missing here and the word ¿mouth¿ is assumed). The

others saw his love for Mary and asked him: ¿Why do you love her more than

all of us?¿ The Savior replied, ¿Why do I not love you in the same way I

love her?¿ - (The Gospel of Philip) - Peter said to Mary; ¿Sister we know

that the Savior loved you more than all other women. Tell us the words of

the Savior that you remember and know, but we have not heard and do not

know. Mary answered him and said; ¿I will tell you what He hid from you.¿ -

(The Gospel of Mary Magdalene) - Seizing on the texts above, writers of both

fiction and non-fiction allowed their pens to run freely amidst conjecture

and postulation of marriage and children between Jesus and Mary Magdalene.

The writers of The Da Vinci Code and Holy Blood, Holy Grail took these

passages and expanded them into storylines that have held readers captive

with anticipation. Did Jesus take Mary to be his wife? Could the couple

have produced children? Gnostic theology leaves open the possibility.
