Michael Angelo's pieta illustrationDid Mary hold Jesus?

Christians have painted this picture of Mary holding Jesus’ dead body after being taken down from the cross. It is a well-known picture that is shown in all churches, at art galleries, and in various types of books. This picture has no part, whatsoever, of what took place in the New Testament. Yet, years from now people have innovated that picture you see and it will become part of the scriptures as though Mary did hold Yashu’a in her arms after coming down from the cross, the same way the Old and New testament, and the Koran have been innovated.
