The mother and brothers of Jesus
46While Jesus was still talking to the people, his mother and his brothers wanted to speak to him and they waited outside. 47So someone said to him: 
—Your mother and your brothers are just outside; they want to speak with you.
48Jesus answered: 
—Who is my mother? Who are my brothers? 
49Then he pointed to his disciples and said: 
—Look! Here are my mother and my brothers. 50Whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is for me brother, sister, or mother.
