No, you have verses that discuss “brothers” and “sisters” of Jesus. None of them says Mary is the mother of others.

The context of the passages...along with the Greek...make it clear Joseph and Mary had children of their own.

I will admit the NT does not say Joseph and Mary had sex on Tuesday resulting in a child being born. It doesn't have to.

What you have to keep in mind is the focus of the NT is on Jesus....not His brothers and sisters....not Mary.

It's on Him.

That’s right. The New Testament is about Jesus.
