As before, this text is graced with many illustrations by James J. Tissot. Part One opens two months after the raising of Lazarus, as Jesus returns from his journeys in pagan lands. Magdalene hears of the time he spent with the Magus who had visited the infant Jesus bearing gifts of gold. We are then taken into a series of initiations she underwent in a secluded cave in preparation for the Passion. In Part Two we learn of plots against Jesus and witness the Triumphant Entry, the Cleansing of the Temple, the Address to the Greeks, and another anointing by Magdalene. Part Three encompasses the Passion and Resurrection. The betrayal by Judas is depicted in detail, as well as the consequences of his deed for his soul. New light is shone upon many mysteries of the Passion: from Jesus's Agony in the Garden to the dream of Pilate's wife Claudia, from the merging of Lazarus with John of Zebedee under the Cross to the great mystery of Magdalene's role in the Passion. The crowning event of this book is of course the glorious Resurrection-the most important event of all time -which we witness through Magdalene's eyes, gaining new insight into its profound mystery. Part Four comprises seven appendices that shed light on themes raised in the text, including a vision of the Gold King as a youth, and visions of Cassius and Abenadar-the two centurions converted at the cross.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51038213341457,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51038216323345,"sku":"NIN9781597315050","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53077881651473,"sku":"GOR012640627","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53385371123985,"sku":"CIN1597315052G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1597315052.jpg?v=1751342907"},{"product_id":"through-the-eyes-of-mary-magdalene-book-estelle-isaacson-9781597315043","title":"Through the Eyes of Mary Magdalene","description":"In this first book of a trilogy on the life of Mary Magdalene, Estelle Isaacson presents her visions of the life of the Apostle to the Apostles as seen through Magdalene's own eyes. Following a Prologue in the starry heavens, Part One encompasses Magdalene's childhood, her journeys and education in Egypt, her struggle with temptations, and her conversion. Part Two takes the reader through some of Magdalene's experiences as she lays down her former life and follows Jesus as his disciple. Part Three visits the Lazarus mysteries and includes revelations concerning his initiation, death, and resurrection. Part Four comprises five appendices presenting subsidiary visions. Among these are two visions of Magdalene's mysterious sister Silent Mary, a figure otherwise unknown except through the earlier visions of the Catholic stigmatist Anne Catherine Emmerich (1774-1824). The book is graced with many illustrations by James J. Tissot (1836-1902), whose work resonates also with Estelle in a very special way, the artist's depictions being so very close to what she herself witnesses in vision. Those who find this volume valuable and inspiring will be glad to know of two further volumes of the trilogy, and that works on other subjects drawn from the ongoing wellspring of Estelle's visions will follow. Book II of the Magdalene trilogy is subtitled From Initiation to the Passion, and Book III is subtitled From the Ascension to Journeys in Gaul. Estelle invites us to stand witness by her side, in community with the Logos and with Sophia. She tells us we need not wait until we are perfect, for Christ comes to us now  -From the Introduction This book is a truly remarkable work on Mary Magdalene, in which the mysteries she lived through are re-experienced through her eyes in a most touching and tangible way. -Robert Powell, author The Mystery, Biography \u0026amp; Destiny of Mary Magdalene.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51038384455953,"sku":"NIN9781597315043","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51325707780369,"sku":"CIN1597315044G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1597315044.jpg?v=1751182773"},{"product_id":"through-the-eyes-of-mary-magdalene-book-estelle-isaacson-9781597315067","title":"Through the Eyes of Mary Magdalene","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51038387306769,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51038392516881,"sku":"NIN9781597315067","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53385370468625,"sku":"CIN1597315060VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1597315060.jpg?v=1750895196"},{"product_id":"grail-bearer-book-estelle-isaacson-9781597311687","title":"The Grail Bearer","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the final volume of her acclaimed trilogy \u003cem\u003eThrough the Eyes of Mary Magdalene\u003c\/em\u003e, Estelle Isaacson intimates a connection between Magdalene and Repanse de Schoye, who lived nine centuries later in the Grail family. Repanse was a sister to Anfortas, the Grail King wounded by the Sky-Fallen Lance, which according to tradition is the same that pierced the side of Christ Jesus. The Chalice used to collect the blood flowing from that wound is said to have been the Holy Grail, which was later in Repanse's keeping--her role being tht of Grail Bearer at Montsalvat. As the Magdalene visions ended, a new cycle began on Repanse and the Grail Family, and the intimation mentioned became a visioned certainty that the two women were incarnations of the same eternal individuality, of whom then the present volume constitutes a continuing spiritual biography. Central to the work is an urgent call to take up again the quest for the Holy Grail in the changed and challenging conditions of our time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOpening messages and a prologue on the City of the Grail and the Grail Bearers are followed in Part One with the story of the young Repanse de Schoye. Part Two portrays the relationship between Repanse and her brother Anfortas, meant to be Bearers of Divine Love, but failing in this task through Anfortas's fall to the wiles of Dengresse, as described in Part Four. As an intermezzo, Part Three tells the story of the Knight Who Buries and Unburies His Armor, a teaching on the Divine Father and destiny. Part Four continues with accounts of Parsifal's first visit to the Grail Castle, his meeting with Anfortas at Emerald Lake, and the story of the Knight With Downcast Eyes. Part Five plays out between Parsifal's first and second visits to the Grail Castle, providing a fascinating look at his relationship with Kyot, cousin of Charlemagne. We hear also the story of the Gardener Knight. In Part Six, Parsifal returns to the Grail Castle, where Anfortas is finally healed, and his half-brother Fierefiz marries Repanse. The book ends with messages on the Disciples of the Night and the Bleeding Lance, the Power of Utter Powerlessness, and the epoch of Philadelphia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe are all part of the Grail stream.
