"It is impossible for Miryam to have remained forever virgin because Yeshua did indeed have brothers. Besides which, had she remained forever virgin, then she and Yoseph were in a sham marriage according to Biblical Hebraic thought (cf. Mat. 19:6).
The Hebrews saw nothing sinful or less worthy in being married and having a normal sex life--just the opposite, in fact. The whole concept of a perpetual virgin Mary is a clear-cut example of Platonic Greek thought being imposed on the Sacred Scriptures, not exegesis from the Scriptures."
nice work. Doesn't this "Virgin" Mary stem from a mistranslation of ancient Hebrew texts...where the texts prophecied the Savior being born to a 'young woman' which got mistranslated into 'young virgin'?
My next question would be Why does Christianity need the Savior's mother to be perpetually virgin? Asking, NOT flaming. Educate me, rather than insult me!
Nope.
Why does Christianity need the Savior's mother to be perpetually virgin?
It doesn't. It needs Miryam to be a virgin at the time of Yeshua's birth for three reasons:
1) To fulfill the prophecy of Isa. 7:14But there's no reason why Mary would have to remain a virgin after His birth, and the fact that she did not is indicated by Mat. 1:24-25: "And Joseph, being roused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took his wife, and did not know her until she bore her son, the First-born. And he called His name Yeshua ('Salvation')."
2) To confirm the truth of the accounts of Yeshua's birth as given by Matthew and Luke, and
3) To sidestep the blood-curse placed on the line of Jeconiah (cf. Jer. 22:30)
