James was NOT the brother of Jesus, but the son of Zebedee.
Mary was a perpetual virgin. Have we been through this before?
Yes we have but you keep forgetting, so I am just reminding you of what even your own church historian Eusebius tells us about James, the brother of Jesus:
"Even at this time Ignatius was known as the 2nd bishop of Antioch, Euodius having been the first. Symeon likewise was at that time the 2nd ruler of the Church of Jerusalem, the brother of our saviour having been the first". [Church History, Book III, Chapter 22]
They were astonished and said: "Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren James, and Joseph and Simon and Jude? and his sisters, are they not all with us?" [The Holy Bible: The Catholic Press].
But then you say this in post #1196: James was NOT the brother of Jesus, but the son of Zebedee.
Follow me: [Matthew 4:21] And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. This James is the James who is killed by Herod here: [Acts 12:1-2] Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
The James who is the brother of Our Lord is still alive (three chapters later) because he is the leader of the Jerusalem Church attested to by scripture, Josephus and Eusebius.
[Acts 15:13] And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me.
[Eusebius, Church History, Book III, Chapter 22] as posted by Uncle Chip in #1292. "Brother of our Saviour"!
[Josephus, Antiquities, Book XX, Chapter IX, Paragraph I] Festus was now dead, and Albinus was but upon the road; so he assembled the sanhedrim of judges, and brought before them the brother of Jesus, who was called Christ, whose name was James.
You are getting these two different people, both named James, mixed up!
