SUMMARY:Saint Mary Magdalene
DESCRIPTION:Saint Mary Magdalene\nSaint of the Day for July 22\n(d. c. 63)\nhttps://www.franciscanmedia.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/SODJul22.mp3\nSaint Mary Magdalene’s Story\nExcept for the mother of Jesus\, few women are more honored in the Bible than Mary Magdalene. Yet she could well be the patron of the slandered\, since there has been a persistent legend in the Church that she is the unnamed sinful woman who anointed the feet of Jesus in Luke 7:36-50. \nMost Scripture scholars today point out that there is no scriptural basis for confusing the two women. Mary Magdalene\, that is\, “of Magdala\,” was the one from whom Christ cast out “seven demons” (Luke 8:2)—an indication at the worst\, of extreme demonic possession or possibly\, severe illness. \nWriting in the New Catholic Commentary\, Father Wilfrid J. Harrington\, O.P.\, says that “seven demons” “does not mean that Mary had lived an immoral life—a conclusion reached only by means of a mistaken identification with the anonymous woman of Luke 7:36.” In the Jerome Biblical Commentary\, Father Edward Mally\, S.J.\, agrees that she “is not…the same as the sinner of Luke 7:37\, despite the later Western romantic tradition about her.” \nMary Magdalene was one of the many “who were assisting them [Jesus and the Twelve] out of their means.” She was one of those who stood by the cross of Jesus with his mother. And\, of all the “official” witnesses who might have been chosen for the first awareness of the Resurrection\, she was the one to whom that privilege was given. She is known as the “Apostle to the Apostles.” \n\nReflection\nMary Magdalene has been a victim of mistaken identity for almost 20 centuries. Yet she would no doubt insist that it makes no difference. We are all sinners in need of the saving power of God\, whether our sins have been lurid or not. More importantly\, we are all “unofficial” witnesses of the Resurrection. \n\nSaint Mary Magdalene is the Patron Saint of:\nPenitents\nPerfumers
