Well looky at what I found. It's even KJV!:

Mark 6:3 "3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him."

Seems pretty clear to me Jesus had siblings.

“Seems pretty clear to me Jesus had siblings.”

Nope, only if you fail to understand the original language of Holy Writ.

Luther understood this:

Christ…was the only Son of Mary, and the Virgin Mary bore no children besides Him… “brothers” really means “cousins” here, for Holy Writ and the Jews always call cousins brothers. (Sermons on John, chapters 1-4, 1537-39).
