Bible Note: Greetings Dalcent! Matt. 1:25 certainly doesn't mandate that Mary must have had children after Jesus, but neither does it rule it out. The most natural reading would definitely seem to be that Joseph did have sexual relations with Mary after the birth of Jesus. Which every way you view it, where does Scripture teach that Mary did not have any other children? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
