Marie du jour, 22 May: St. Edith Stein

In Mary, we do not see the Lord, but we see her always by the Lord’s side

Her service is rendered directly to Him: through the prayer of intercession, she intercedes with Him for humankind; she receives from His hands graces to be bestowed and does indeed transmit them.

She does not represent the Lord but assists Him. Her position is thus analogous to that of Eve by the side of the first Adam. But Mary is beside Jesus, not for His sake but for ours.

You know, I feel compelled to say that had it been me there in the garden on the fateful day, had I been the one there with the Serpent instead of Eve being offered the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil with the tempting words "Surely, you will not die".
I know I'd look that serpent right in the eye and say this:
"But I will die, and don't call me Shirley".

@Raccoon Well, God believes sex/gender is binary.
Genesis 1:27
Genesis 5:2
And Jesus (who is God in the flesh) believes it as well
Matthew 19:4

I don't even have to bring up St. Paul, since I know you people don't like what he has to say.

I think I'd rather agree with God than with the so-called accepting Christians who pervert his word.

I call this "Mass Mind Denial"

People who can't grasp why "Apple Computers" icon and name is after the Mass Mind Meme / of Adam and Eve. Cultural programming. The Bible is one of the most printed books in human history.

Denial of the conditioning by society.

No matter how righteous we are/appear to be, ALL sin Each/Everyday. What is sin? It's falling short of God's perfect standard of righteousness.

When it comes to acknowledging our sins before God: Are we MORE like who made excuses or Are we MORE like who openly confessed his sins of adultery w/ having her husband murdered?

We all blame others at times for our sins. Exercise faith in & God will our sins.

Beneath the apple tree:
there I took you for my own,
there I offered you my hand,
and restored you,
where your mother was corrupted.

THE SPIRITUAL CANTICLE, STANZA 23

COMMENTARY

The Bridegroom explains to the soul in this stanza his admirable plan in redeeming and espousing her to himself through the very means by which human nature was corrupted and ruined, telling her that as human nature was ruined through Adam and corrupted by means of the forbidden tree in the Garden of Paradise, so on the tree of the cross it was redeemed and restored when he gave it there, through his passion and death, the hand of his favor and mercy, and broke down the barriers between God and humans that were built up through original sin. Thus he says:

Beneath the apple tree:

That is: beneath the favor of the tree of the cross (referred to by the apple tree), where the Son of God redeemed human nature and consequently espoused it to himself, and then espoused each soul by giving it through the cross grace and pledges for this espousal. And thus he says:

there I took you for my own, there I offered you my hand,

That is: There I offered you my kind regard and help by raising you from your low state to be my companion and spouse.

and restored you, where your mother was corrupted.

For human nature, your mother, was corrupted in your first parents under the tree, and you too under the tree of the cross were restored. If your mother, therefore, brought you death under the tree, I brought you life under the tree of the cross. In such a way God manifests the decrees of his wisdom; he knows how to draw good from evil so wisely and beautifully, and to ordain to a greater good what was a cause of evil.
