This reasoning is flawed. The only correct way to determine the meaning of the word adelphos is by the CONTEXT of the verses being examined!!! If we go by the total number of verses that use this word in the new testament. Then add up how many times these verses dont use the word for uterine...

Excellent question. An answer to this question would prove catholic doctrine without a shadow of doubt. And heres the Biblical answer: The Bible also teaches by the silence of the scriptures. Heres a direct example of reasoning from silence, Hebrews 7:14, - for it is evident that our Lord...

Hello, I can amen your teaching about Jesus having brothers and sisters birthed from Mary. But the rest of your teaching I cannot. Inherited sinful nature is not Biblical. Adam sinned. Where did he inherit the desire to sin? Where did Eve inherit the desire to sin? Adam did not require a...

Well done. It's really that simple. New testament Greek scholars translated all of the English new testaments. Why is it not one new testament translated into english uses cousins for the passages that mention Jesus' brothers and sisters?

Dodge Still refusing to give a clear answer to my question. Do you agree with the historical document(The Protoevangelium of James) that you used for your evidence, that states Joseph had children with a previous wife before he married Mary mother of Jesus? No you have never directly answered...

Bread of Life used the Protoevangelium of James to prove what? He has admitted it's not his belief that Joseph had children with another wife as the Protoevangelium makes this claim. So why even bring up the Protevangelium of James document if you dont believe its factual historical evidence...

Hopefully some of your brethren will have an open mind to what I've presented from scripture. Good night

If you repeat this 1,000× it will not become truth. No where does it tie together these passages you keep citing with Mary's sister being the woman who is the mother of Joses and James. Catholics like to use sources outside the Bible to try and prove their doctrines are from God. First...

The scriptures never tie together Mary's sister in John 19:25 to the women and her sons in Matt. 27:56 ; Mark 15:40 ; Mark 16:1 or Luke 24:10. Only your doctrine assumes the two are the same.

John 19:25 is silent about Mary's sister having children. That is the assumption from your doctrinal tradition.

I'm not denying anything. These verses do not identify this women as Mary the wife of Cleophas!!! That is the assumption made by your tradition.

If you repeat this 100 × it will still be wrong. I decide adelphos best use based on the context.

Wrong, Nowhere in any passage does the Bible explicitly state Mary the wife of Cleophas is the mother of James and Joses. Also nowhere is it taught Mary the Mother of Cleophas has daughters. The Bible does explicitly state Jesus has sisters.

Wrong. Context is what I use 100% for all conclusions on scripture.

I never made that assumption. Maybe you hear what you want to hear ? I dont know. I told you to understand any passage you must know the CONTEXT!!!

Mary's sister had children and therefore the brothers and sisters of Jesus are Mary's sisters children. This interpretation is not based on scriptural evidence only assumption. The argumentation used in this doctrinal belief is as follows: 1. John 19:25 says Jesus' mothers sister was Mary the...

By the context. You cannot come to the knowledge of the truth by assumption. I never use assumption to exegete Gods word. Jesus' brothers, Matthew 13:55-56, - Is this not the carpenters Son... This is Joseph as his Son is Jesus. - is not His mother called Mary... Jesus' Mother Mary. - and...
