I've read many times that it appears Jesus had siblings.

Yes, you've probably seen that in the Bible.

Forget about trying to interpret what a word means - the Church has already supplied the interpretation, as related in:

*2 Peter 1:20 Understanding this first, that no prophesy of the Scripture is made by private interpretation.

*This shows plainly that the scriptures are not to be expounded by anyone's private judgement or private spirit; because every part of holy scriptures were written by men inspired by the Holy Ghost, and declared as such by the Church; therefore they are not to be interpreted but by the Spirit of God, which He has left and promised to remain with His Church to guide Her in all truth to the end of the world. Some may tell us that many of our divines interpret the Scriptures. They may do so but they do it always with a submission to the judgement of the Church and not otherwise.

Yes, you've probably seen that in the Bible.

Matt 13-55] Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brethren James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Jude:

Mark 6-3] Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joseph, and Jude, and Simon?

Galatians1-19] But other of the apostles I saw none, saving James the brother of the Lord.
