Saint Mary Magdalene was born in Palestine, within Magdala, near Capernaum. Having received from Christ Christ Redeemer miraculous escape from obsession seven demons, I have believed and I have followed Him. In the Gospel it is said that she together with the Virgin was present at Christ's crucifixion, I observed his burial and for the third day, together with other myrrhbearers, I have come to Christ's coffin and I have found him empty. Her the first, according to the legend, was the revived Lord.
