Mary and the Ten Commandments - The Transfixion - Bk5 - Ch10

The Venerable Sister Mary of Jesus of Ágreda describes how the Blessed Virgin Mary received enlightenment on the Ten Commandments and how she applied that knowledge. The Blessed Virgin Mary tells us about the strength of the law of the Gospels saying, "...when the Word of the eternal Father issued forth from his bosom and assumed humanity in my womb, He came to enlighten those that walk in the darkness and in the shadow of death (Luke 1 79), and to restore them to their lost happiness. Hence, in order to be their light, their way, their truth, and their life, it was necessary that He should give them a law so holy, that it would justify them; so clear that it would enlighten them; so secure, that it would encourage them; so powerful, that it would move them; so efficacious, that it would help them; so truthful, that it would bring joy and delight to all that would observe it."
