You make an excellent point about Mary washing Jesus' body. She annointed his head and feet with expensive ointment, a ritual that only was done by a man's wife in preparation for his burial.

Yes, they took the scriptures, shook them, turned them upside down and inside out and played games with them on choosing the one's that would give them control or money in the future.
Yes you are correct.... reincarnation is quite an important teaching really but they missed it out as it took away their control over the masses. Thinking you only had one life worked better in their eyes, you did what you were told or you go to hell, no second chance to evolve spiritually and get it right
Thankfully we have the Gnostic Gospels which affirm reincarnation, but according to some they are false, very convenient.
I can't see anyone other than a Wife or Mother being allowed to touch the naked body of Jesus, it just wouldn't have happened. Mybe that's why we have no mention anywhere in Scriptures of Jesus between the age of around 12 until 30, where they lost years or just 'silent years ' ( keep it quiet ) which would have revealed his marital status, another cover up mybe.
