And was Mary the Immaculate Conception?
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"). A year after his wife's death, as the priests announced through Judea that they wished to find in the tribe of Juda a respectable man to espouse Mary, then twelve to fourteen years of age. Joseph, who was at the time ninety years old, went up to Jerusalem among the candidates; a miracle manifested the choice God had made of Joseph, and two years later the Annunciation took place.
Now as we can see those children mentioned in the bible that were Jesus's brothers and sisters were His half brothers and sisters. Can someone tell me what other children Mary had besides Jesus.?
Immaculate conception
What is the Immaculate Conception? It is an even more incredible miracle.
