Subject: jawz, Who's the carpenter, son of Mary? |
Bible Note: Greetings Jawz! I was just trying to be funny! :-) But, I think my point is valid. Just because something was a tradition, doesn't necessarily mean that Jesus was bound by it. In this instance, there are possible reasons why He may have entrusted Mary to John rather than His siblings. But, since the text never says, we can only guess. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
