Is not his mother named Mary, and are not his brothers named James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas? read more.
And do not all his sisters live here among us? Then where did he get all this?" And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is treated with honor everywhere except in his native place and at his home." And he did not do many wonders there, because of their want of faith.
