No she did not


Joseph was already married before Mary



And then again when Jesus Christ was on d cross what did he say to John?

He told him behold your mother and to Mary behold your son.And after that John took her and started taking care of her.


Why will he hand his mother over to his disciple if he had other brothers

xtybliss:
adetayo support your ' she didn't' is that the only thing you can write?

First off, there was no distinction between brother, cousin or other male relatives in the ancient days. You can only tell if she had other children if the Bible actually mentioned that she or Joseph has other kids, but the Bible never said that.

Secondly, when Jesus was dying at the cross, he handed his mother to one of his disciples. Why would he do that if Mary had other kids? I mean, Mary could have just gone to her other kids now. And Jesus wouldn't have needed to even bother about such an issue since her mother had other kids.

They had their children after God used them as vessels.

Or a carpenter after working for a whole day, we see his wife and will not want to have intercourse with her or you are saying Joseph was a mastubator

Mary had other children and after the birth of Christ. Christ birth was a virgin birth. Jesus had not just brothers but Sisters

See Matthew 13:55-56
“Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother’s name Mary, and aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas?
Aren’t all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?”

Why not compare these scriptures:

1."Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him".(Mk6:3)

With this:

2."There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome".Mk15:40

And who is this Mary mother of James and Joses? St. John says:

"Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene". john19:25


They were not Mary's children. Scripture never said so.

Mary had four other sons, Joseph, James, Jude, and Simon. Because of the virgin birth, Joseph was not the father of Jesus so these were the half brothers of Jesus. The last three mentioned are not to be confused with those who were disciples of Jesus by the same name. Here are some passages where the other sons of Mary by Joseph are mentioned ( Matt. 12:46; 13:55 ; Mark 6:3 ;
John 2:12; 7:3, 5, 10 ; Acts 1:14 ; 1 Cor. 9:5 ; Gal. 1:19 )

lols, go read your bible again. The "virgin" was because of how Jesus was conceived. Mary had other children.

I notice NL to b a very bias platform. on Fridays wen this uncircumcised Philistines upload their trash Christians r blocked from commenting, in fact u hv to take oath. but wen it comes to Christian matters every Philistine is given access easily. Since wen has NL start taking sides?

Ummm, it's true the mods for some ignoble reason put the shahadah as a requirement for comments on an Islamic topic. I dunno about mist muslims on here but its totally flawed. I think.some muslims feel the insults from you folks aren't permissible. This doesn't stop some of you from clicking yes to the shahadah and spewing same insults. So its really not useful. And a gain our prophet has told us to seek for knowledge and teach others that knowledge for some have been misled about affairs of the religion. If the mods could take down the shahadah and employ it for its real purpose in welcoming converts, it would give us that much needed civility.

Then to your.insults tho. Are those really necessary. I'm a muslim and I'm circumcised. I would show it to you but that is haram and unethical. Where do you get the idea that muslims don't circumcise. This is another reason you need the right knowledge about Islam.

The scripture mentioned it multiple times


Matthew 13:55-56 " Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? 56 "And His sisters, are they not all with us ? Where then did this man get all these things?

Mark 6:3 " Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judas, and Simon? Are not His sisters here with us ?"


Mt 12:46 While He was still speaking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers were standing outside, seeking to speak to Him. 47 And someone said to Him, " Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You." 48 But He answered the one who was telling Him and said, "Who is My mother and who are My brothers?" 49 And stretching out His hand toward His disciples, He said, "Behold, My mother and My brothers



John 2:12 After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother, and His brothers, and His disciples; and there they stayed a few days.
