I don’t care if Billy Graham testifies to the perpetual virginity of Mary. She was married to Joseph and she bore other children. This does not reflect badly on her or the Lord. She was a normal person but was given an extraordinary role.

You are getting the wrong information from somewhere.

How could the Angel Gabriel address her “Hail, Mary, full of grace,”

if she were not holy enough to be a tablernacle, in fact, the Ark of the New Covenant, for Jesus Christ in her womb?

She was very HOLY. Did not even Elizabeth address her:

“Blessed art thou among women.” ??

“And blessed is the fruit of your womb.”??

To Elizabeth’s last statement, Catholics add the word, “Jesus” when we say the Hail Mary.

Please don’t rely on your falsehood sources. Read Luke again and again and pray about it.

She was a normal person, but she was not a middle-class American, nor was she like the orthodox Jews of later times, the Jews of the Talmudic period. However, like Jews of all times, she belonged to an extended family, and probably was related to almost all the people of Nazareth. Which would give special poignancy to the rejection of Jesus by the people of his town.

Where is the evidence that Mary was not a perpetual virgin?

Thus sayeth BipolarBob. Of course all the other theologians through the centuries were wrong, correct? Because you have done an in-depth study of scriptures and sola scriptura, you have your own "divinely inspired" understanding and comprehension of scripture.
