Virgin Mary: Ark of the Covenant
"Virgin Mary: Ark of the Covenant"
Plenty of theological theories--Saint Helena bringing armies to investigate Israel; plus, many a Rabbi kept the secrets. Just theory. I'm a fruitcake, but here we go.
In THE LITANY OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN, She is described as the Ark of the Covenant, Tower of David, and more. Some theologians suggest that She was a Levite, the only people able to carry the Ark of the Covenant, as they were clean, washing perpetually. And the Ark held the LAW, as did the Virgin Mary hold the New LAW in Her inviolate Belly. Thus, at least metaphorically, She could be dubbed the Ark of the Covenant.
Some say She had to be a Levite mixed with the Tribe of Judah. A patriarch or matriarch describes the truth of you though. And of course, Saint Joseph was from the House of David.
But the Torah was offered to many nations, according to the college dropout Philip K. Dick, a sci-fi prophet of sorts, yet all nations rejected it, due to it allowing you to have no fun in life. Ya know: "Thou shalt not do this; thou shalt not do that." Nobody but a bunch of slaves would accept it--according to Philip K. Dick's words.
But Christ raised the LAW, saying: "Follow My Father's LAW, and Mine."
He jacked up the legality with the Beatitudes. And told people to spread His Living Flesh and Blood. And like Saint Peter in his constant anxiety freakishly asked: "Rabbi, we have given up everything to follow you--what's in it for us?"
Christ basically replied: "You will be persecuted greatly if you follow Me." And I'm sure Saint Peter's eyes got filled with more anxiety, yet Christ was kinda/sorta like: "Relax Peter, because after all the bad stuff is out of the way, you will inherit a geography with many Fathers and Mothers; plus, many Brothers and Sisters, and there shall be no contempt."
Indeed, Christ is the New LAW, yet forsakes not, but fulfills, the Old LAW. Verily, one day--Justice and Peace shall kiss.
