Did you know that Hebrew has no words for distant cousins, so that when the Septuagint was translated into Greek, the words brothers and sisters were used?
Did you know that the writers of the New Testament honored this convention?

Right. Jesus is the Son of Mary. It doesn’t say who are the parents of the other parties.
