Another misconception is that all the disciples came from poor backgrounds.
I just read an article that said that in those days fisherman in Galilee were fairly prosperous...middle-class at least.
I agree with you that there are a lot of misconceptions out there.
Yeah, I get annoyed at Christmas when Joseph and Mary are depicted as destitute and homeless, when they arrive in Bethlehem for Jesus's birth. Joseph was a skilled craftsman, so it's likely they were not destitute. When they arrive in Bethlehem, they are not 'homeless'; they have a home in Nazareth. It would be as though someone arrived in a decent sized city during a large event, and there were no rooms in any hotels. That doesn't make them homeless, just not able to find a room for the night.
I know why folks compare the Holy Family to the poor and homeless; it's a 'Social Justice' thing, but it's very annoying.
