520 |a In language the indicative mood is for facts and absolutes; the subjunctive mood is for hope and possibility, for faith held together with astonishment. The argument of this article is that women may be more likely to do their believing, their preaching, and their ministry in the subjunctive mood, a mood that would seem to correspond to the kind of truth both revealed and hidden in the Incarnation, a mood that refuses brute inevitability and the despotism of the fact. To consider this thesis, we turn not to statistics but to Scripture and to three key women: Eve, whose fall is a fall into the indicative; Mary, whose subjunctive mood in response to the Annunciation sets our salvation in motion; and Mary Magdalene, whose encounter with the risen Lord is an encounter with the one whom words cannot hold.
