There is nowhere in the Bible that mentions the names of their daughters. Neither do we know how many they had. Because both Matthew and Mark use the term sisters (plural) then we know they had at least two daughters, but it could be more. It is safe to say that altogether, Mary and Joseph had at least seven children.
She had no other children and never engaged in the marital act with Joseph. Sometimes this is confusing since there are references in the Scriptures to Jesus' brothers and sisters.
Jacob and Rachel had 14 children and grandchildren. Their son Joseph was already in Egypt, where he had married Asenath, daughter of Potiphera, the priest of Heliopolis.
The text is framed as an explanation by Jesus on the Mount of Olives concerning the life of Joseph, his stepfather. Agreeing with Mary's continued virginity, the text proclaims that Joseph had four sons (Judas, Justus, James, and Simon) and two daughters (Assia and Lydia) by a previous marriage.
Christian canonical scriptures do not record the death or Dormition of Mary. Hippolytus of Thebes, a 7th- or 8th-century author, writes in his partially preserved chronology of the New Testament that Mary lived for 11 years after the death of Jesus, dying in AD 41.
It is often said that Joseph was 90 and Mary was 11-12 years old when they got married. There is not one verse that says this. Though one can guess Joseph was older than Mary since he died before even Jesus did.
If we stick to the Holy Scriptures, we must infer that Our Lady remained in Jerusalem with the Apostles, and in particular with St. John the Apostle, to whom Jesus had entrusted her before dying.
Joseph has one wife, Asenath the daughter of Potiphar the priest of On, whom he marries in Egypt. She gives birth to two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh. Since in the Bible, unlike in later Jewish law, ethnic identity is determined by the father, the fact that their mother is not an Israelite does not affect their status.
When we read Genesis 6:4, we see that “the sons of God came in to the daughters of man and they bore children to them.” The sexual activity is plain and not subtle. If the sons of God are rebel angels, then illicit sexual activity is taking place in unions with human women.
According to Mark, our first written Gospel, Jesus had four brothers: James, Joses, Judas, and Simon. He also had at least two sisters, although they are unnamed. Matthew agrees with this list, although he modifies the name “Joses,” changing it to the more common version “Joseph.”
Abimelech had killed Gideon's 70 sons. They were Abimelech's own brothers. And the leaders of Shechem had helped him kill them.
The choosing of St. Matthias as the twelfth apostle is recorded in the first chapter of the Book of Acts. "For it is written in the Book of Psalms: 'Let his dwelling place be desolate, And let no one live in it'; and, 'Let another take his office. '
Jesus had half brothers I believe who did not believe he was the Messiah. They were not following which is why I believe Jesus declared John as her son and Mary as his mother. He was making sure she was physically and spiritually being cared for and ministered to.
Scholars believe Mary would have been somewhere between 12-16 years old when she had Jesus (Ibid.). Given the biblical account and the Jewish cultural practices in Mary's day, the most plausible age Mary would have been when she had Jesus was most likely 15 or 16 years old.
Joseph's marriage contained in the apocryphal writings. When forty years of age, Joseph married a woman called Melcha or Escha by some, Salome by others; they lived forty-nine years together and had six children, two daughters and four sons, the youngest of whom was James (the Less, "the Lord's brother").
Joshua 24:14–15 Reminds Us to Serve God
And then for us to pray that God would save us from idols in our country. We must decide if we will serve God or ourselves. Let's do that. God, we start this prayer by saying you alone are God.
If Jesus is God's Son, does that mean God had a wife? God has never had a wife. Calling Jesus God's Son is an expression of His role in relation to God the Father. Unlike us, Jesus was not conceived by two earthly parents; He was born of a virgin through a miraculous work of God.
The Gospel of Matthew explains that Joseph was a “righteous man, yet unwilling to expose [Mary] to shame” so he decided to “divorce her quietly.” (Matthew 1:19). This indicates that although Joseph generally respected the law, he did not want to subject Mary to derision, judgment, and possible death.
Article. Solomon, third king of Israel (reigned c. 968–928 B.C.E.), is said to have had a harem that included 700 wives and 300 concubines (1 Kgs 11:3).
24) but did not consummate the marriage until after Jesus was born (v. 25). Mary was a virgin, but a married one. Jesus was born to parents who were married and was raised by parents who faithfully honored their vows to one another and to God.
The following verse, though, makes it clear Joseph did not sleep with Mary until after the birth of Jesus. She remained a virgin, fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah (Isaiah 7:14). After that time, Joseph and Mary would have other children together (Matthew 13:55–57; Mark 3:31–32).
John was one of Jesus' closest disciples, known as the "beloved disciple," and the only apostle present at the crucifixion . He authored the Gospel of John, three epistles, and traditionally the Book of Revelation, focusing on themes of love, light, and truth .
There is no specific Church teaching on when St. Joseph died. All we know from Sacred Scripture is that he died in between the time that Jesus was twelve and when Jesus started His public ministry at age 30.
