Since it wasn't necessary to name the Pope or any Bishop, it's easy to understand your complete confusion. Suffice it to say - there was a Biblical hierarchy and all of your whining about it won't change that.

The Catholic Church doesn't have an "official" position on most verses of Scripture. The Church, in its wisdom does, however, takes the different Gospel accounts in CONTEXT. When comparing the different accounts of the "brethren" of Jesus and the places where they are named - it also takes the...

I answered all of your question with one answer because they were all basically the same stupid question. Do some homework and come back with an intelligent response for a change.

And I'm not arguing by denial like our friend Rollo or YOU. When I argue a point - I come fully-equipped with Scripture, history and linguistics on my side.

This is a lie. I never said that the Church was "crystal clear" about their relationship. The Bible simply calls this other Mary, the mother of Apostle James the Younger (Less) the "Adelphe" of Mary, mother of Jesus. She is called the wife of Clopas, which is also rendered as Alphaeus. This...

It became another anti-Catholic thread HUNDREDS of posts ago. YOU should know since you had a hand in it . . .

And MY parish received an award in June - and the Pope was never mentioned. For that matter - neither was the Bishop - yet we submit to their Authority. I can't possibly make you understand the Church because you're outside of it . . .

"The CHURCH of Ephesus . . . Exactly. Neither the Bishop nor the Pope is mentioned because they're not the ones being scolded.

Are YOU that dense, also, bbyrd?? Matt. 27:56 simply shows WHOSE mother those "brothers" of Jesus was, along with Mark 15:40 and John 19:25. In Matt. 13:55, they are asking about the "Adelphos" of Jesus - by NAME. Jesus's mother in Matt. 27:56 and Mark 15:40, they are mentioned again - but as...

Like I told you before - denial is NOT an argument. It's just desperation . . .

Just a rudimentary study of the NT and Greek Septuagint shows us that "Adelphos" has MANY meanings. For - In Gen. 14:14, Lot is called Abraham’s "brother" (Adelphos), even though he was the son of Haran, Abraham’s brother (Gen. 11:26–28). - In Gen. 29:15, Jacob is referred to as the...

That's why you need to read ALL THREE accounts in context, Einstein: Matt. 27:56 says, "among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee". Mark 15:40 states, "There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary...

Why is ANY OT Type and NT fulfillment important?? Because they ALL point us to Christ. The OT type that was the Ark of the Covenant is fulfilled in Mary, the Ark of the NEW Covenant: OT - The Word was written by God on Tablets of Stone (Ex. 25:10) placed inside the Ark (Deut. 10:1) NT -...

No - we only worship God. YOU seem to worship the god of lies, though . . . Anyway - "Adelphe" doesn't necessarily mean uterine sibling or blood relative - and neither does "Adelphos."

Joseph and Joses are the same person. Matthew's account says Joseph, while Mark's account says Joses. This is the SAME name transliterated 3 different ways. THREE Marys are names when you compare all THREE accounts at the cross: 1. Mary, Mother of Jesus 2. Mary, wife of Clopas and...

For about the TENTH time: John 19:25 "But standing by the cross of Jesus were HIS MOTHER, and HIS OTHER'S SISTER MARY, THE WIFE OF CLOPAS, and MARY MAGDALENE". That's THREE Mary's by my count. How many do YOU see??

Translation: "I have nothing to add - just popping in again . . ."

Wrong - they have EVERYTHING to do with Matt. 13:55. Jesus's mother Mary was in the company of the James, Joseph, Simon and Judas - the sons of the other Mary near the cross. This Mary is describes as bing the "sister" (Adelphe) of Jesus' mother Mary. We know that they were not uterine sisters...

James the Less or "Younger" is known as the son of Alphaeus or "Clopas" (Matthew 10:3, Mark 3:18, Luke 6:15, Acts 1:13). He was an Apostle and the one called "Brother of the Lord" and was the Bishop of Jerusalem (Matthew 12:46-50; 13:55, Mark 3:21, 6:3, John 7:3-5, Acts 1:14, Galatians 1:19...

Okay - I'll pay your game. WHO is being spoken of in Matt. 13:55?? I'll make it even easier: WHICH Mary is being spoken of.
