Publisher's Synopsis
Our Mother: The Holy Spirit by Marianne Widmalm is the definitive book on the history of the gender of the Holy Spirit as revealed in the Hebrew scriptures of the Old Testament, and the teachings of Jesus and the early Church fathers. In Genesis, She was the basis for the physical model of Eve, and her relationship with God's people is as relevant today as it was in the Garden of Eden. Much about The Holy Spirit's gender has been intentionally hidden and mistranslated since gentiles rose to prominence within the Christian Church, and the Hebraic roots of The Spirit of Yahweh were suppressed in scripture in favor of an all-male Trinitarian ideal. However, Yahweh was meticulous in His description of His Spirit in the Old Testament, associating Her with Wisdom and acknowledging Her presence in the creation of the world, whom He called His daily delight. Learn why Her gender was altered by men, how it damaged the Body of Christ, and explore its backlash in feminism. From Genesis to Revelations and many other historical writings of the early Christians, Our Mother: The Holy Spirit exposes the true identity of the Holy Spirit and what She still wants to teach Believers today.
