The present work contemplates the encounters of Jesus with the principal feminine figures of the New Testament in accord with the method of prayer proposed by St. Ignatius of Loyola in his Spiritual Exercises and offers material for silent meditation. In this interior journey, the reader is accompanied in a particular way by the philosopher and Discalced Carmelite, Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein), and her insights, experiences and reflections on the mystery of woman.
