Mary Magdalene was accused of "having many men." She was labeled "A Prostitute." Her "many men," were in fact, her one and only husband who is known to history under several aliases. It was the only way to preserve his real identity while also returning the lands of his birthright to him. He was the grandson of Herod the Great and Hasmonean princess, Mariamme, giving him the right to be called, King of Judea, King of the Jews. Judea had once been a part of Arabia, which encompassed the Parthian Empire, the Kingdoms of Media, Adiabene, Persia, Armenia, Edessa, Cappadocia, Commagene, Cilicia and Syria. By the end of his life he had become "King" of all those lands - and so very much more!
