 | magdalene.org | Book review: "The Secret Magdalene" by Ki Longfellow
The story begins when Mariamne is ten years old and has just recovered from a mysterious illness that leaves her with a prophesying voice not her own.
At the tender age of twelve, Mariamne is adopted by a philosopher who raises her and Salome as boys, educates them and gives them the freedom to pursue their own interests.
Mariamne Magdal-eder is dropped into the middle as a woman who "has become male," who becomes the disciple most loved by Jesus, and who has a pivotal role in the foundation of Christianity itself.

 Herod
His second wife was Mariamne, a grand-daughter of the ruler-priest Hyrcanus II; by this marriage Herod connected his own house with that of the Hasmonaeans (Maccabeans), and thus attempted to legalize his kingship in the eyes of the Jews.
He seems to have loved Mariamne with all his heart, although she hated him.
By Malthace, a Samaritan wife, he had Archelaus and Herod Antipas; by Cleopatra, a wife from Jerusalem, was born Herod Philip (who became a tetrarch); and by another Mariamne (the daughter of Simon of Jerusalem, whom Herod made high priest) he had a son also known as Herod Philip, or Philip of Rome.

But then what was stronger than all this was the love that he bare to Mariamne, and which inflamed him every day to a great degree, and so far conspired with the other motives, that he felt no other troubles, on account of her he loved so entirely.
But Mariamne's hatred to him was not inferior to his love to her.
When therefore he was about to take a journey abroad, he committed his wife to Joseph, his sister Salome's husband, as to one who would be faithful to him, and bare him good-will on account of their kindred; he also gave him a secret injunction, that if Antony slew him, he should slay her.

However, Mariamne recommended Sohemus to him, as he was setting out on his journey, and professed that she owed him thanks for the care he had taken of her, and asked of the king for him a place in the government; upon which an honorable employment was bestowed upon him accordingly.
And when this moved the king, he said that this love potion was a composition that she had given him, whose effects he did not know, which was the reason of his resolving to give him this information, as the safest course he could take, both for himself and for the king.

One may wonder why it was that she needed no temple; but neither do trees, flowers and the beautiful stones to be found along the shore.
Which posed somewhat of a problem--while the what and who was easy to follow, the why was more of a challenge.
