Is it stated in the Bible either way? Not really. Jesus's brothers and sisters could have come from Joesph's prior marriage.

Honestly, doesn't matter a whole lot to me.

You should actually read the article.

If sex in marriage is sanctified and blessed by God... why would this same God deny a normal marriage to the mother of His son? The scriptures tell us plainly: Matthew 1:25: And he knew her not TILL she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. The word "till" is the operative word here... if Mary remained a perpetual virgin, "till" would NOT be necessary in the passage. That should end it for those who really want the truth, and not just be contrary. God bless!

Whenever I hear THAT argument, I have to ask myself... When Joseph and Mary traveled to Bethlehem, how come I never see any mention about the REST of the family traveling with them? I am assuming that Joseph raised the kids, of course, since the mother died... Just wondering.
