Maggy Whitehouse - Bible Metaphysics and Authorship

Bible Metaphysics and Authorship

Whitehouse has written for Joe Vitale Is "Mr. Fire", Unity Magazine, the Birmingham Post, and has been interviewed by Toni Reece on Get Inspired.

Whitehouse's 2007 book The Marriage of Jesus explored the social and economic times that Jesus lived in. Her theory is that Jesus would have married, like any other young man of his times, at the age of approximately 14. Working from historical knowledge of the times (and referencing Suzanne Croom's book The Roman Mother) Whitehouse begins from the premise that the average life-span of a woman in Jesus' time was 27 years. As Jesus is said to have begun his ministry at approximately 30 years old, she finds it likely that he was a widower by that time.

In the 1990s Whitehouse wrote a fictional trilogy about a female cousin of Jesus, including The Book of Deborah.

Whitehouse's novel The Miracle Man, an updated version of the story of Christ, was published in November 2010.

Famous quotes containing the words metaphysics and/or authorship:

    To regard the imagination as metaphysics is to think of it as part of life, and to think of it as part of life is to realize the extent of artifice. We live in the mind.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The Bible is good enough for me, just the old book under which I was brought up. I do not want notes or criticisms, or explanations about authorship or origins, or even cross- references. I do not need, or understand them, and they confuse me.
    Grover Cleveland (1837–1908)
