Description
Additional information

The Lifetime of the Virgin, attributed to the 7th-century Church Father St. Maximus the Confessor, is the earliest full biography of Mary that has come all the way down to us. In it he main points the details of the Virgin’s story, drawing on both the Scriptures and holy tradition to present the fullest conceivable portrait of her life. He begins by narrating the Immaculate Conception and childhood of Mary herself, following her during the joys and trials of the Annunciation, the Virgin Birth, Christ’s Baptism and earthly ministry, culminating in His Passion, Crucifixion, and Resurrection, and ending with His Ascension and Mary’s own Dormition. The general chapter tells the tale of the Deposition of her Holy Gown.
