Officially Mary of Magdala is not a prostitute. Her story follows the
story of the adulteress who is also named Mary in the Bible. Church
fathers have done little to clarify the issue but have emphatically
stated that Mary of Magdala and the prostitute Mary are not the same.
It is what people add to the story over the ages. Like most people
confusing Milton's version of Adam and Eve with that in the Bible.
