The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary from the Visions of Ven. Anne Catherine Emmerich, paperback 400 pages
The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary from the Visions of Ven. Anne Catherine Emmerich focuses first on the ancestry of the Blessed Virgin Mary, then on her childhood and early life, next on her life with Jesus and St. Joseph at Nazareth.
Incredibly revealing and edifying background of Our Lady, her parents and ancestors, St. Joseph, plus other people who figured into the coming of Christ. Many facts described about the Nativity and early life of Our Lord, as well as the final days of the Blessed Mother--all from the visions of this great mystic.
Characteristic of all the writings from the visions and revelations of Anne Catherine Emmerich is a beautiful, holy aura that seems to surround and pervade everything she says (most readers sense this aspect of her work from the very first pages); and this book is typical of Sr. Emmerich's works in this regard. This book is filled with unusual, saintly descriptions that are not recorded in the Gospel story-descriptions that supplement and illustrate the Biblical narrative in a way that makes the actual Scripture passages truly come alive. This book will richly reward the reader with insights he could never gain from any other sources and is a book he will remember all his life.
