A solution to Genealogy.....with help from Greek :)
#2
Perhaps I should elaborate:

The context plays a vital role in actually knowing the semantic range of Adephoi, even though it is technically incorrect for it to be used outside of brother/sister. Therefore, it is not incorrect to say that it *can* mean more than just brother.

The context of Matthew's own genealogy not numbering up to it's own standards would be the deciding factor in making Paul's theory correct. The semantic range is decided by the standard of the author. It doesn't matter if a better word could have been used.
