The Assumption of Mary

If you review the Rosary and the corresponding Scripture from the Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful and Glorious to this point, I’m pretty sure that you’ll be satisfied with what you find. It seems to be a pretty direct one to one correlation and easily accessible. I have to admit that the Scripture for the Assumption of Mary is… a little less understandable.  Usually, it’s from Revelation so it doesn’t explicitly state that “Mary was taken bodily into Heaven because she was born without sin and bodily death is a consequence of sin.”

I’ve been doing a bit of research and one of the things that I’ve found that made sense was “Hey they didn’t make a tomb of Mary Mother of God, so early Christians took it for granted that Mary was taken bodily into Heaven.”  (So there was no reason to look for her tomb and build a church over it.)
