'Brothers' in the Bible

Now his mother and brothers came to him, and they were not able to meet with him because of the crowd.

And it was reported to him, "Your mother and your brothers are standing outside wanting to see you."

But he answered [and] said to them, "These are my mother and my brothers--the ones who hear the word of God and do [it].

And he also said to the one who had invited him, "When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or wealthy neighbors, lest they also invite you [in return], and repayment come to you.

"If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, and furthermore, even his own life, {he cannot be} my disciple.

for I have five brothers, so that he could warn them, in order that they also should not come to this place of torment!'

And he said to them, "Truly I say to you that there is no one who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children on account of the kingdom of God,

Now there were seven brothers, and the first took a wife [and] died childless,

And you will be handed over even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends, and they will put to death [some] of you.

but I have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail. And you, [when] once you have turned back, strengthen your brothers."
