TSK · Matthew 12:46

As they came into the house and saw the child with Mary his mother, they bowed down and worshiped him. They opened their treasure boxes and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

saying,“Get up, take the child and his mother, and go to the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the child’s life are dead.”

Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And aren’t his sisters here with us?” And so they took offense at him.

Jesus’ True Family Now Jesus’ mother and his brothers came to him, but they could not get near him because of the crowd.

His mother told the servants,“Whatever he tells you, do it.”

But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then Jesus himself also went up, not openly but in secret.

All these continued together in prayer with one mind, together with the women, along with Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.

But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord’s brother.
