The Gospel of Mary: A Fresh Translation and Holistic Approach

By: Mark Mattison

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Lost and forgotten for more than a thousand years, the only ancient Gospel named after a woman apostle emerged from the sands of Egypt just over a century ago. Originally written in Greek early in the second century and later translated into Coptic, Mary Magdalene’s Gospel comes to vivid life in this fresh translation with contemporary reflections on the ancient wisdom of this recovered treasure. Note on the cover artwork: The title format on the front cover is patterned after the inscription at the conclusion of the fifth-century Coptic text of the Gospel According to Mary.

The content

The numbers of the passages got in the way of the message but the content is good

Actually reading the verse number.

It was very distracting that the verse number was read in “real time” as the reader read through the gospel. I could not finish. It’s awful.

Reading of numbers is distracting

The book is impossible to finish as the numbers are read during narration. It's too distracting.

Interesting and educational.

The AI is annoying. It doesn’t know what not to read like the numbers in scripture. The lesson however was very good.

He reads the scripture number

Reading the scripture numbers through is so distracting and you can’t really hear the message. It’s Like Rain Man keeps interrupting. It’s kind of horrible. The narrator needs to learn how to read scripture, by pronouncing each line number you take away from the flow and don’t relay the word properly the numbers are silent, unless they are conveying part of the message. Please update this.
