Was Mary Magdalene A Prostitute?

The widespread belief that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute is as credible as the belief that there were three kings who visited the Lord Jesus, that the forbidden fruit eaten by Adam and Eve was an apple and that the Lord Jesus was born on December 25.

No. There is no record in the Bible that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute. Period.

Mary Magdalene can only be identified as a prostitute if we confuse the woman in Luke 7:36-50 with Mary Magdalene in Luke 8:1-3.
