Mary Magdalene and the Angels: A Meditation on the Bride who wept past angels in search of the Gardener.
from St. Anthony's Tongue · host St. Anthony's Tongue
Most people in Scripture tremble when they see angels. But not Mary Magdalene.In this episode, we explore why Magdalene wept past angels at the tomb, mistook God for a gardener, and recognized the Risen Christ not by sight—but by the sound of her name. Drawing from the Song of Songs and the writings of St. Bernard of Clairvaux, we reflect on bridal longing, holy ache, and the bold love that doesn’t settle for anything less than Jesus.This isn’t just a story about the Resurrection. It’s a meditation on how to seek Christ when He feels absent—and how He calls to each of us in the garden of our soul.Because it was the ache that made her holy.
