The Davincci Code - Was Jesus married? What do you think?
602007
to say Jesus was married. would be to say that he couldn't handle the humanly temptations he had. the bible says that God will not give anyone any temptation they can not with stand. so that would say that Jesus was thinking of sinning. which is blasphemy so there you go it is a lie and a heresy to believe it.

I just saw the film.\n\nThe part about how Christianity took pagan beliefs and mixed them in is correct. The fact that Constantine changed the religion (at least to a degree) is correct.  In fact when he ruled that in order to hold government office you had to be a Christian he managed to turn a bunch of pagans into Christians (in name only) over night.  Their underlying pagan beliefs remained the same, they just changed their title.\n\nThe part about the museum having bathroom windows that can be opened is absolutely false. Nor does the museum have bar soap that you can stick a GPS tracer into, they have liquid soap in the bathrooms.\n\nThe Priory has been pretty much determined to be a fraud. (Discovery Channel ran a series of shows which demonstrated this.) Of course, the paranoid will say that the "fraud" is just a cover story and it is exactly what the Priory wants you to think so that they stay secret.  \n\nThe idea that the "royal bloodline" filters down to one and only one woman in Europe seems pretty unbelievable. The Merovingians had many kids, there would have to be several thousand Merovingians by this point in history.\n\nThe idea that Jesus and Magdelene were married, well, not much proof one way or the other. Even if they were, it is that thing about rising from the dead that still sets things apart.\n\nOne idea that I don't think most people have considered is the possibility that the entire DaVinci Code movie and book might just be designed as a meme (brain virus as it were). Designed to "inject" the concept of this bloodline into the populace. Then, when the time is ripe, "they" will unveil a person who is supposedly the descendant in question whom "they" want to setup as a One World Leader.\n\nFrankly I think there is more "fact" in "The Norman Rockwell Code".

I do believe that there is some truth to the Code and to the subjects covered in the book. I have reexamined the painting of the The Last Supper and I absolutely see the image of Mary Magdalene in the picture and I believe that Jesus could have been married and also fathered a child. You have to have an open mind and want to contemplate the possibilities that it could be true because I truly believe that it is very possible.

Priory of Sion and Da Vinci notwithstanding, of course it is possible. Remember that there are many years in the life of Jesus not accounted for in the Bible. Anyone who thinks that he did not have relations during this time period is being a little naive. I'm not saying that there is a conspiracy, just that we need to look at him as a man. Now...what would Jesus do?

From prospective of Islam, DA Vin chi Code is not true. Because Islam does not believe that Isa ever died or crucified. He didn't have either a wife or a daughter. Islam believes that the people who think (no offense please!!!!) that Isa (peace be upon him) was crucified-they are confused from the beginning. So there is no question of possibility of him having a wife or a daughter. Islam believes that Isa is still alive and he will appear in this world again. Then he will have wife and children and will lead a life of a normal human being-in fact as a Muslim. So, Jesus (Isa) getting married and having a child is a fiction.

You know...when I saw the DaVinci Code and it reveals the girl is Jesus' descendant...I knew there was something special about ME!\n\nI think I am Jesus reincarnated...and I'm a woman.  So my response to your theory is I agree it's entirely feasible.

It's based on  the theory that Jesus was married to Mary Magdeline and the bloodline continues to this day and that many men DaVinci included knew about it and strived to protect it. Davinci being a genius flaunted hi knowledge of ti by hiding hints in his paintings.

It still is a pack of lies about Jesus Christ. He was never married and had no children. If he had done either, these would have been special events in his life that would have been recorded in the Gospels of the bible. Just like when he attended the wedding at Cana where he turned water into wine.

First and foremost of all, the "DaVinci Code" is a work of fiction; however, within its pages it contains informations based on historical facts and/or theories.  Now, as to the question asked:\n\nThis is a very grave matter to be discussed because, the very core of this topic can very well destroy, not only the Roman Catholic Church but also, the whole Christianity.  Still, one cannot deny the fact that, the "what-if" can be very possible.\n\nThere are things which were not clear about Jesus as presented in the Christian Bible, and that part is what made people starting to ask these "what-if" questions.  The Bible did state that, Jesus "loved" Mary Magdalene more than his followers; thus, what is meant by this "love"?  Indeed, a very likely hint, isn't it?\n\nSo, what we are left are two choices:\n\n- Stand firm in the Christian Faith and, consider this "DaVinci Code" as just another nonsense.\n\n- Venture beyond the "point of no-return"...

You're absolutely right. Jesus never was married. I have never seen that in the Bible, or heard that from any preacher. The Bible is was, is, and will always be the Truth.

Alright all you would be Biblical scholars out there -- Paul did have 2 friends in which he was close to -- They were Aquillia who was the husband to Priscilla and they were tent makers -- Paul was a Free Roman at birth on to adult hood witch was no small matter in and of itself during that day in time -- He was raised at a Gentile (non-Jew uncircumcised) and only claimed to be Jewish in his later years from the tribe of Benjamin, from a long-established Pharisee family in Tarsus that was practically erased off the face of the earth so there was no one around to validate his claim. -- Before he became Paul he was known as Saul in the Roman Empire and carried a fair amount of status. Men of that status were automatically expected to have a wife even just for show. Usually a mutually agreed upon business arrangement between the brides father and the groom for more political power -- The wife always stayed at home while the men when away and about to deal with business. So it is commonly accepted that he did have a wife in that capacity but not a wife in the since of how we perceive them today. As for "the thorn in his side" it has been speculated on for thousands of years -- Most commonly believe that it was eye sight problems he continued to have after the blinding light of seeing the full glory of Jesus that day -- Others speculate that it was his wife calling him back home to Rome and quit his insanity with the new religion -- And some take it literally that he had some sort of kidney, bowel or internal problem -- But the truth is no one knows -- There is a lot of new information on Paul in the newly published Gnostic Gospels found with the Nag Hamani Library from the 70's -- You can find the complete Gospels and English translations on the Internet that can shed new light and a different perspective on biblical times if that's what you are looking for -- Maybe a few more facts to fill in the gaps -- Hope all this helps and please feel free to email me if you have any more questions, I'll be happy to help and share what I know --\n---Angel

Jesus Christ married his favourite prostitute and left descendants who are alive and well and working as pizza delivery drivers in downtown Manhatten under secret identities. The crucifixion was a fake, the Holy Grail is being used as a sauce-boat in the North British Hotel near the Rosslyn Chapel, and anyone who can figure out antediluvian Greek puns can work out the truth from a series of ancient monuments, tablecloth labels and car registration numbers. \n\nI could tell you their names but then I'd have to kill you.

I have read the Da Vinci Code.  I don't believe the story it has of Mary Magdalene.  Because for one, Mary Magdalene was never tagged as a prostitute in the Bible.  \n\nThis is the story I believe about Mary Magdalene: http://www.jesusdecoded.com/catholicchurch8.php

I agree, Jesus could not have gotten married and had a child.\nJesus was only sent here for the purpose of teaching the deciples and spreading Gods word to many, and as a sacrifice to die in our place  for sins.\nJesus was a sacrifice without a spot, it is mentioned, that the mesiah was clean of sin.\nThe Davinci Code is yet another example of swaying from the bible to tell biblical untruths, to create a stir, and to make money, I would not be involved in such blasmophy.

Well, I wasn't able to find anything specific on who he married or when, but it looks like I'm not the only one who's in the dark:\n\n"We do not know whether he married or had children, nor even with any certainty when and where he was born and died. Nor do we know what he looked like."\n\nHere's the website that's from: http://technology.guardian.co.uk/online/science/story/0,12450,834755,00.html .  Sorry!

Many people seem to have a problem remembering that this book is fiction.  Some Christians take offence because it is important to them that Jesus was a virgin all his life.  I think these people somehow see sex -- even in marriage -- as "dirty" -- otherwise, why would it sully Jesus' purity to have a wife and children?  They seem to think the possibility detracts from His perfection.  \n\nFor me, it makes no difference.  Jesus is the Messiah, the Christ, whether He was married or not.  And the possibility of His bloodline continuing seems to me to be important only to those who think His blood contained some special DNA that would be passed down.  Unless that DNA somehow makes people better people, more likely to love others and change the world -- what difference does it make?  And from what I see of the world, any DNA that makes people better has been as diluted as the Truth He brought (sorry, Christians).  It would be nice if His Teachings existed and were followed in their entirety, but if they were, the world would not be in the state it is in now.\n\nI don't read too much into "The Last Supper" -- it's a painting, not a photograph!  It was done centuries after the fact and the people shown *represent* the people who were there but do not look like them -- since no one knows what they looked like.  If the figure to Jesus' left looks feminine, it is only because da Vinci painted it that way -- and reflects da Vinci's beliefs and/or skill -- not reality.  \n\nI enjoyed the book, but really don't understand the furor.  There are so many books that are more interesting and controversial -- but many of them aren't fiction.  :-)
