| 520 | |a "The Protevangelium has long been recognized as the single most important manuscript associated with the development of Marian dogma in early Christianity. The theology of the manuscript and the interpretation of its contents, however, have been woefuly misunderstood for almost two thousand years. The present work reveals that the Protevangelium is a theological presentation of Mary in the same genre as the infancy narratives of Matthew and Luke. The story of Mary in the Protevangelium tells of a Jewish maiden whose unique vocation was to the the mother of the holy one, the Son of the Most High. The christological awareness in the Gospel times was sufficient to single out Mary's place in salvation history. However, it was her role as a holy of holies of the divine presence -- a role that can only be understood within the holiness tradition of the Jewish people -- that first engendered her veneration among Christians"--Back cover. | ||
