This week we tour the hometown of Mary the Magdalene - the village of Magdala.
Magdala was a wealthy fishing village that was famous throughout the Roman Empire for its salted-sardines.
According to Luke 8:2-3, Mary supported Jesus and the disciples "out of her own means."
There are many questions about Mary. Does the Bible say she was a prostitute? Is it possible that she controlled her own wealth? Could her wealth have come from the city of Magdala?
Join us this week as we explore the village of Magdala and the most recent interpretations of Mary the Magdalene.
