Footnotes

  1. 62 Grk “Who is my mother and my brothers?” The use of the singular verb ἐστιν (estin) here singles out Mary above Jesus’ brothers, giving her special prominence (see ). This is slightly unnatural in English since the predicate nominative is plural, though, so a plural verb was used in the translation.
