How many brothers and sisters did Jesus of Nazareth have?

Senior Moments

http://www.ucg.org/booklets/JC/humanbeing_connections.htm The Gospels also show us that Jesus had many half brothers and half sisters who were born to Joseph and Mary. In Matthew 13:55-56 we see that some residents of Nazareth asked: "Is this not the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary? And His brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas? And His sisters, are they not all with us?" This passage names four half brothers—James, Joses, Simon and Judas (Jacob, Joseph, Simeon and Judah in Hebrew)—and mentions His half sisters (plural). Thus Jesus had at least six half siblings—four brothers and two sisters. Apr 16 04, 5:40 PM
