Doesn’t the Bible say Jesus had siblings? I guess some people say the word should be translated “cousins,” but the arguments could go on forever.
I just don’t see why God would require Joseph and Mary to remain celibate forever. They were so obedient to Him; why wouldn’t God allow them, after the birth of Jesus, to have a normal marriage and more children? I don’t think a normal marriage and additional children would take anything away from Mary and what a special, obedient, and wonderful woman she was.
**Doesnt the Bible say Jesus had siblings?**
They were relatives, not siblings.
You are thinking as modern man does — not as the people of that time thought.
Four people are called "brothers" of Jesus in the gospels. And the PARENTS of THREE of them are named. And they are not Mary and Joseph.
Jesus did indeed have siblings. It’s clear unless you’re grasping at straws trying to cling to a religious cult.
