Under the Apple Tree - Paul Flynn - Bog

As Mary's presence to the church attracts increasing interest among Christians, we need to dig more deeply in the biblical texts to learn something of the full dimensions of her personality and life. Prophetic texts, particularly in the Song of Songs, are rich sources of information about Mary's early years, about the development of her sense of her own calling, and about the expansion of her role into her Motherhood and Queenship of the struggling church after the years she spent on earth.This work explores these texts, with invaluable assistance from the book left by Fr Gobbi, 'To the Priests, Our Ladies Beloved Sons, ' in which she communicates her whole mind on the current state of the church on earth, on where things are headed for the church, on the depths through which we are still traveling as part of the tribulation, and ultimately, after much upheaval, the triumph of her Immaculate Heart in the acceptance by the nations of the kingship of Jesus.Mary's words and works are not only totally consonant with Scripture; they are indispensable to understanding it
