Songs of Holy Mary

Song #4
This is a story of great treachery, violence, and abuse. The son of a jew had a communion and was blessed the Holy Mary. His father asked him about his day and his son told him that he had just had his communion. Being that he is jewish, his father lost sanity and his right mind and threw his son in the furnace. However because he was baptized and had a great deal of appreciation for the Holy Mary and Christianity as a whole, Holy Mary looked after him and protected him from any pain just as God her son did for Hanananiah, Azriah, and Mishael. There was a direction connotation to Holy Mary holding her son in her arms on the alter. It was as if the little jewish boy was her son whom she held on to for dear life. The theme in this one is the opposite of song five. It is about faithfulness, acceptance for other religions, especially since Jesus himself was Jewish. It's also about believing and committing to your belief. Holy Mary obtains the role to save the Jewish boy whom showed faith and hope in Holy Mary. There is a religious commentary concerning Jews and Christians and the unsettling separation of the two. This story shows just how dangerous and violent religion is. It shows how it alters situations and personalities.
