Yes, playing is exactly what you’re doing.

We know that Yeshua had brothers, by the testimony of the apostles. We know that the apostle James was the brother of Yeshua by the testimony of Paul to the galatians.

We know that Paul got his knowledge directly from Yeshua, on the Damascus road, so there can be no doubt that James truly was Yeshua’s brother.

Why would anyone want to deny these things? Whyu would anyone wish to deny Joseph and Mary the joy of a large family?

It’s truly a strange club that you people belong to.

Yet again you give me a verse that does not call James the son of Mary or of Joseph. There were two James in the NT. One was the son of Zebedee and the other the son of Mary, wife of Clopas.

Paul’s use of the word brother here is not regarding a biological connection but a spiritual one.

Another Fail.
