Regardless of the book (which I have not read), would it make any difference if Jesus was married or not? Most men marry and it seems to me that we could use a good example.
Hey, check this thread out!
From a theological point, yes it matters. Jesus was no ordinary man, but God made flesh. It was not His purpose here to lead an ordinary life. He had a calling which precluded a family life which centered around their needs. He didn't have time for that because He was here to serve all mankind and be the ultimate example of selflessness and He was that.
