Gospel of John shows our Lord to be Mary's only child

[Stephen Silver]

Dear family in our Maran Alaha and Mahydoneh Yashua,Berek Alaha! I'm writing to point something out in the Holy Goepel of St.John which shows St.Mary to have remained a virgin and that she had no other children.In the Orthodox church,the moast ancient and true Christian church together with the Church of the East and the Eastern Rite Catholic churches,we are taught that the brothers and sisters listed of our Mari in the gospels are actually children of St.Joseph from his previous marriage and that he was an aged widower when the virgin was intrusted to his care.When our Lord was on the cross he bequeathed the care of his mother St.Mary to St.John which he wouldnt have done had she had other children as the Jewish religion and culture of the time ensured that ones children would take care of them once they became older and needed the care.This can be plainly read in St.John;Chpt 19;25-27.I just think it important as the COE,the Oriental and Eastern Orthodox churches and the Eastern and Latin Rite churches all teach this important fact.Thank you for reading.In Yashua,Deacon Michael.

Shlama Deacon Michael:
Thank you for clarifying the fact that Yeshua was the only begotten Son of Alaha as well as the only begotten son of Miriam. Indeed the New Testament scriptures support this view.

Shlama,
Stephen Silver
