Hail Holy Queen Mother Madonna, one user tweeted.

Not everyone appreciated the biblical references, however, and many blasted the editorial for being blasphemous.

User itsnatlydenise wrote simply, My #Jesus is not #Madonnas costume.

Speaking about the controversial imagery,Madonna explained that it was just a setin herVanity Fairinterview.

Do you know how I felt?

I felt exposed, attacked.

And it was just a metaphor, it was just a set.
