Words mean things.

Luke 8:20 Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”

He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who HEAR God’s Word and OBEY IT.”

Yes. This episode, for example, means that someone used the word "brothers" describing the company Mary was with, and Jesus did not agree with that use, and offered His own, spiritualized sense of the word.
