Pitre uses the Old Testament and Ancient Judaism to unlock how the Bible itself teaches that Mary is in fact the new Eve, the Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven and Earth, and the new Ark of the Covenant. It causes us not only to know more about the Mother of God, but also to. Pitre takes readers step-by-step from the Garden of Eden to the Book of Revelation to reveal how deeply biblical Catholic beliefs about Mary really are. This book is vintage Brant Pitre: clear, persuasive, readable, and above all, inspiring. In Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary, Dr. “Brant Pitre is one of the most compelling theological writers on the scene today.” –Bishop Robert Barronīestselling author of Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist casts new light on the Virgin Mary, illuminating her role in the Old and New Testaments.Īre Catholic teachings on Mary really biblical? Or are they the "traditions of men"? Should she be called the "Mother of God," or just the mother of Jesus? Did she actually remain a virgin her whole life or do the "brothers of Jesus" refer to her other children? By praying to Mary, are Catholics worshipping her? And what does Mary have to do with the quest to understand Jesus? Throughout the Lenten season and Holy Week, we will be running a series of video presentations by Dr Brant Pitre covering the Jewish Roots of Mary.
