Gal_1:19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.
This is Jesus' brother James...There are already two words in the NT that denote 'cousin'...This particular James is not a cousin of Jesus...
Disregarding the inanity of this sentence, I read that exchange again. Scripture never says that those who came to speak with Jesus are not Christians, or that they did not obey what Jesus taught.
Perhaps it's not that the sentence is inane...Could it be the comprehension skill of the reader that is in doubt???
Luk 8:21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.
Joh 7:5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.
Scriptures says Jesus' mother and brothers came to see him...Scripture says Jesus' brothers didn't believe in him...
What do I do with Jesus’ sisters? Nothing.
Scripture does not say that anyone in Jesus’ household dishonored him.
4But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house. 5And he could there do no mighty work,
Clearly, Jesus is speaking of his own self, in his own country, amongst his own relatives and in his own house...Without honor...
Mat 13:58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Please stop wasting your time reading into Scripture what is not there.
So those are just more meaningless words that Jesus threw into the scriptures to take us space, eh???
*****Gal_1:19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord’s brother.*****
There are only two Apostles named James, one is the son of Zebedee and Salome and the other the son of Mary and Cloaphas.
******Perhaps it’s not that the sentence is inane...Could it be the comprehension skill of the reader that is in doubt???****
No, the sentence is inane.
That passage does not say that those who came to see Jesus were rejected by Him, nor does it say that they did not obey Him, which was your contention in your post previous to the one with the inane sentence.
Again, the word brethren could have encompassed all those related to Him in any way. Again, the argument is not whether there were brothers and sisters in the household with Jesus.
The question is whether or not any of them were children of Mary. The answer to that question is no. We don’t know who these brothers and sisters of Jesus are, but they are never identified as Mary’s children.
*****So those are just more meaningless words that Jesus threw into the scriptures to take us space, eh???******
Do not mistake my rejection of your convoluted debate to mean that I find anything Jesus said to be meaningless.
Rather take my responses for what they truly are....an indication that I find your exegesis meaningless.
