Daniel Akill-Attieh's Blog | 431: JESUS’S MOTHER AND BROTHERS

Dear Readers and Fellow-Apes; 2008 was a Murky and Hapless Year! Let us hope that 2009 does not turn out to be even More Murky and Hapless!

I intentionally did not wish you a Merry Christmas, because Christmas is another story for another Posting at another time; and I do not wish you a Happy New Year, since I believe that ONLY FOOLS ARE, OR CAN BE, HAPPY ALL YEAR ROUND. I do, however, wish all of you A GOOD YEAR! With a little Good in one's life, one can be a little happy, which is all one can ask for in one's short sweet dream one calls a life-time. BY GOD AND SATAN!

A Jack of many trades and master of all; I am honest to the core and I hate lies, deceits, pretensions, hypocrisy, treachery, betrayal, and stoic compliance; and I despise – and actually pity – Human-Apes who follow-the-herd-or-pack

I expose and reveal the lies, deceits, pretensions, hypocrisy, treachery, betrayal, and blind, deaf, and stoic compliance, and Human-Apes who follow-the-herd-or-pack; I tell or write the truth; and I say what I mean and mean what I say

I fear nothing; least of all, death

If I must fear anything at all in life, then let me fear what I think and know of myself; because, in the end, one’s knowledge and opinion of oneself is what counts most. All the world may think and believe one is such and such, but one knows one is such and such. Also, I like to look in the mirror and like what I see and know about me.

I invite comments, remarks, criticisms, and even insults – so long as they are straight to the point, in order for me to correct or adjust myself accordingly. What I do not welcome and won’t accept or tolerate is HORSE-SHIT!

Dear readers and felow-Apes; with every page, every report or article, every paragraph, every sentence, every word, and every letter; I thank you for taking the trouble and the time to read My Not-So-Humble Comments.

431: JESUS’S MOTHER AND BROTHERS – Did you know that Jesus had brothers?

14 November, 2008

JESUS’S MOTHER AND BROTHERS – Did you know that Jesus had brothers?

Matthew 12: verses 46 to 50

While Jesus was talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside – I told you that Jesus was an ordinary man – albeit a prophet, perhaps, and if they say so – but a man, all the same. Someone told him: Your mother and brothers are standing outside; wanting and waiting to speak to you. And Jesus said: Who is my mother and who are my brothers? Then he pointed at his disciples and said: Here are my mother and brothers; for whosoever does the will of my father in heaven is my mother and brothers and sisters. Funny; he did not mention father. He really believed he was the son of God even though, if Joseph hadn’t married his mother, Mary, she would have been stoned to death – that was the law and the punishment for a woman who became pregnant while not yet married; let alone the fact that the man who made her pregnant was unknown – and, also, his mother, Mary, had other sons – by Joseph, we presume and hope, and not by the Holy Ghost or Spirit – apart from him.

Mark 3: verses 31 to 35

Then Jesus’s mother and brothers arrived. Standing outside, they sent someone in to call him. A crowd was sitting around him, and they told him – at least one of them told him: your mother and brothers are outside looking for you; and he asked: who are my mother and brothers? Then he looked at those seated in a circle around him and said: here are my mother and my brothers. Whoever does God’s will is my brother, sister and mother – Daniel: I wonder how he could tell already that they were doing God’s will!

Luke 8 verses 19 to 21

Now Jesus’s mother and brothers came to see him, but they were not able to get near him because of the crowd. Someone told him – well, one of them did: your mother and brothers are standing outside, waiting to see you. He replied: my mother and brothers are those who hear God’s word and put it into practice.

Daniel: I hope you’ve read 430
