Mary Magdalene is the author of a book of the Bible? Which would that be?

I'm sorry it says the gospel of mary Magdalene and like the gospel of Judas and a bunch more. I just don't know much about the history of bible Christianity etc. Although I very much so believe in God. It's all very fascinating to me and I don't want to read something that isn't based on some sort of truth

There are many versions (and translations) of the Bible and, depending on the various traditions and groups of Christians. The Old Testament as we know it today mostly agrees with the Jewish Torah and the Greek Septuagint but there are many books whose authorship and/or divine inspiration were disputed and which were not included in some versions. Much the same applies to the New Testament. The history of why some books were included and others were not is very complex and there are some writings which have been discovered since the various Churches decided what should be included in their versions of the Bible. Books like the Book of Enoch and the "Gospel of Mary" are called 'apocryphal' books because their authorship and their veracity are questioned. I suggest that you try to find the most authoritative and unbiased sources if you want to know more about how such books fit in with the history of Christianity. It is a very big subject which it's really impossible to cover here!

Those two books were never part of the Bible and are not found in any Bible that I have looked at. I would encourage you to pick up any Bible and read it and it will help you to get close to God.
