46 Yet while he spake to the people, lo! his mother and his brethren stood withoutforth, seeking to speak with him.

49 And he held forth his hand into his disciples, and said, Lo! my mother and my brethren;
50 for whoever doeth the will of my Father that is in heavens, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.
