Matthew 12:46-50 - Jesus' Mother And Brothers

⁴⁶ While Jesus was still speaking to the large crowds, His mother and [half-] brothers were standing outside [of the large house. See 13:1] wanting to speak to Him. ⁴⁷ Someone [from the crowd] said to Him, "Look, your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you."

⁴⁸ He answered the person who told Him, "[Just] who is my mother? And who are my brothers?" ⁴⁹ Then He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, "Look, [here is] my mother and my brothers!" ⁵⁰ "For whoever will do what my Father in heaven desires, is my brother and sister and mother."

³¹ Then Jesus' mother and [half-] brothers came and stood outside [i.e., of a large house. See Matt. 12:46-13:1]. They sent a message to Him, asking Him to come out to them. ³² Someone in the large crowd that was sitting around Him said to Him, "Look, your mother and your brothers are outside looking for you."

³³ He answered them, "Who is my mother and who are my brothers?" ³⁴ Then He looked out over those gathered around Him and said, "Look, [here is] my mother and my brothers ³⁵ For whoever will do what God wants, that person is my brother, and sister and mother."

¹⁹ Then Jesus' mother and [half-] brothers came to Him, but they could not get near Him because of the [large] crowd. ²⁰ And it was told to Him [by someone], "Your mother and your brothers are standing outside wanting to see you."

²¹ But He replied to them, "My mother and my brothers are those people who hear God's word and obey it."
