It sucks to live in the shadow of your older brother or sister. Imagine if Jesus Christ had a little brother or sister. How do you live up to THAT? amirite?

There was passage where Jesus was told his mom and brothers were looking for him, then he had to differentiate betwen his true brothers (his spiritual brothers) and his other brotherss(his blood brothers). At least that's how I read the passage.

Yeah but think of all the hand-me-downs. You'd be pretty much set on robes and sandals.

Are you fucking retarded? I mean, it is true that Mary probably did get knocked up and did lie about it to cover up her shame, but, An angel could not have knocked her up mainly because angels don't exist and the bible doesn't even say that to begin with.

Mary was a virgin.
John was Jesus' cousin, son of Elizabeth who was Mary's aunt.
Jesus refers to his friends as "brothers" in reference to the fact that we're all brothers and sisters in Christ and through God being our orignal creater, we are all somehow related through Him.
And I suppose I'll end this shit with an AMEN!!!!

@TrikSterling Ok! Everyone has a right to their own beliefs...this post was supposed to be a joke. Anyway since I'm doing this...

I will give it to you that Jesus does refer to others as 'brethren' figuratively. But, in Mark 6:3 it says "the Son of Mary, the Brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon" and Mark 15: 40: "Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome"

Modern Psychology suggests that a younger sibling who is shadowed by an achieving older sibling tends to be rebellious in order to get the same attention that the older one receives, but in a different manner.

Therefore, the ANTICHRIST!

Ha! Living in the shadow of Jesus! I do that in my sleep. Please.
Try living in my shadow for once. That would suck.

Well, technically, we're all his brothers and sisters, because we're all sons of God, but then again, Jesus is kinda part of God, and yeah.. I confused myself.. AGAIN.

I don't think that literally means brothers, as in the same parent(s). Mary kept her virginity throughout her whole life, and James's father is Alphaeus, who is not Joseph. James's mother, Mary of Clopas, is not the Mary who gave birth to Jesus.

This user has deactivated their account.
@1305669

It's taught in the Catholic Church that Mary kept her virginity throughout the remainder of her life. It doesn't mention anywhere in the Bible of Mary giving birth to any other children, and like I said above, they could be sons of Joseph in a previous marriage, or the cousins of Jesus.

@OnebadWhiteKid I have..

ok. Well you must know the bible better than me. (doubtful) can you tell me where it says this? Because it says that Joseph didn't consumate the marriage (they didn't have sex) until after Jesus was born. Until meaning that afterward they did it (;)) Mathew 1:25 also Jesus did have I believe 12 siblings. (I could be wrong) 2 of his brothers did write books of the Bible James and John.

@1305506

But John baptized Jesus, and recognized him as the Messiah. Although many times in the Bible Jesus is said to have "brothers", they either refer to close family members or sons of Joseph, not Mary.

I'm pretty sure Joseph didn't have kids, but you are right. In the Bible they refer to all family members and close friends as brothers. The initial meaning was skewed in translation.

Nobody is really sure of whether Joseph had kids in a previous marriage or not. It's been debated on whether they were just cousins (as Catholicism states) or if Joseph was a widower who had children.

Jesus had siblings

Btw - according to the Bible, James from the book of James was Jesus' brother. He's in the NT way at the end.

Jesus had a biological brother named John who was the son of Mary and Joseph after Jesus was already born. So, yeah Jesus did have a little brother, who was also one of his disciples.

He had at least 5 siblings: Simon, James and Joses. THe bible also mentions him having sisters(more than one).

@LaurenLostt That's why he mentioned he had sisters too...

He said as I quoted befo-

Oh, I see. Man, I feel stupid. The internet does this to me.

@Was there a Judas/Judah too? Or am I confused?

There are two main Judases in the bible: Judas, the son of James(also goes by another name but i dont remember what it is) and Judas Iscariot(who betrayed him).
Judah was Joseph's brother and one of the twelve tribes. but none in his immediate family.

He did, haha. I know John never really mentioned the fact that they were related, though, so.... you pretend you're not related. Bam.

Good thing Harry Potter didn't have any siblings either.

He did have siblings younger than him.
