Archaeologists Explore the World of Mary Magdalene
A real biblical site, a real woman, and a real faith, all rooted in history. That's what we learn from the archaeological dig at Magdala.
If there were a prize for the least-understood yet incredibly-important person in the Bible, it would probably go to Mary Magdalene. I suspect that more people "know" that she was a prostitute — which is based on a misreading of Luke, chapters 7 and 8 — than the fact that she was the first witness to the Lord's resurrection.
Recent archaeological discoveries are shedding a much-needed light on the life and times of this vital biblical character.
