Christ's Flirtation with Mary Magdalen
Christ said to Mary Magdalen
After His Resurrection
"Don't touch me, for I have not
Yet ascended to my Father"(John 20.17).
It sounds like a flirt to me.
He was hinting that if she
kept on touching Him
He wouldn't even want to ascend
to his heavenly throne.
It was as though He said to her,
"I'm tempted to give up heaven
just for you, Mary dear,
Fairest of all fair maidens."
