About this item

The holy Myrrhbearer and Equal of the Apostles Mary Magdalene was from the village of Magdala on the Sea of Galilee. At some point in her life, she came under the possession of seven demons. The Lord Jesus cast the demons out (Luke 8), and Mary became His disciple. Along with several other pious women-disciples, Mary gave her money and possessions to pay for the Lord's needs as He traveled throughout the land. Mary and the other women followed Him to the very Cross, with only the Mother of God and the Apostle John remaining to the end. On the morning of Pascha (Easter), Mary was the first to go to the tomb. The Lord appeared to her, but she thought He was the gardener, until He said her name and she recognized Him.

In this icon, Saint Mary holds the red egg as she did before Caesar. She also holds a jar of myrrh, as she was one of the women who went to anoint the Lord's body, and a cross. The presence of a cross usually means the saint was a martyr; Mary was not, but her self-sacrifice and willingness to confess the Faith in the face of danger makes her equal in spirit to the martyrs.
