3017.— Christ’s Brothers and Sisters

By Editor

Did the mother of Christ have other children, or were those who were called His brethren only His half-brothers?
Presumably the latter. They were probably children of Joseph by a former wife, and in law were His half-brothers.
The second question, asking the meaning of Romans 14 and Ecclesiastes 12, are altogether too large questions for this department or to be answered by letter. There must be some points in these chapters concerning which information is desired. We wish that our correspondents would be definite regarding this. What points in Romans 14, what particular thing or things in Ecclesiastes 12? Romans 14 has been considered twice at least during the last year.
