Yes, there is biblical evidence. **The teaching of the perpetual virginity of Mary does not rise or fall on one word, rather, a body of evidence from other sources such as: Mary’s question to the angel as to how a betrothed virgin would conceive; Jesus entrusting Mary to the care of a non-blood relative at this death; and also the long witness of ancient Tradition. **

Mary's question says nothing about remaining a virgin during her life.

Jesus commanding John to take Mary as his mother says nothing about remaining a virgin during her life.

Long tradition isn't Scriptural.
