Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary: Unveiling the Mother of the Messiah

“Brant Pitre is among the most compelling theological writers on the scene lately.” (Bishop Robert Barron)

Best-selling creator 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.

Are Catholic teachings on Mary truly biblical? Or are they the “traditions of men”? Will have to she be known as the “Mother of God”, or just the mother of Jesus? Did she in reality remain a virgin her whole life, or do the “brothers of Jesus” refer to her other children? By praying to Mary, are Catholics worshiping her? And what does Mary have to do with the quest to keep in mind Jesus?

In Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary, Dr. Pitre takes listeners step by step from the Garden of Eden to the Book of Revelation to reveal how deeply biblical Catholic beliefs about Mary truly are. Dr. Pitre uses the Old Testament and ancient Judaism to unlock how the Bible itself teaches that Mary is actually the new Eve, the Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven and Earth, and the new Ark of the Covenant.
