No I'm not John silly, that would be weird.
But what is Christ actually saying to John - and how is he saying it ?
"Behold-- THY Mother"
"Consider a few well-known passages in the King James Version in which the word behold is used, and mentally substitute for it the phrase Listen, because this is very important:
***"Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel (Isaiah 7:14).***
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, ,behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord (Luke 2:10-11).
And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee (Matthew 9:2).
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me (Revelation 3:20).
You seeing it yet?
Uh, dude?
The KJV isn’t the original text of the Gospel of John.
The simple fact that you mixed the Hebrew of Isaiah and the Koine Greek of John tells me that your source has no idea what Biblical hermenutics and languages actually are.
Whoever you got that argument from is an absolute dunce in the field of Scriptural translation.
The way you arrogantly condescended at me when declaring your ludicrous argument is equally amusing.
And the text ALSO tells us exactly what Jesus meant when John took responsibility for taking care of Mary’s needs, not the other way around.
Nonsense, but you need the imaginary nonsense to support the goddess image your religion asserts for the Mother of Jesus.
More sophistry, since while "behold" as an attentive consideration (a better translation than "look" or "listen") can denote something of much importance, in context this is directed toward John to take Mary into his personal care, not to the church to place her on a pedestal as a exalted goddess. Moreover, consider that we are also told "behold" Mary as standing without as the crowd of hearers the Lord taught, and seeking His attention.
However, rather than acting like the Catholic Christ toward the Mary of Catholicism and thus promptly leaving the crowd to attend to her desire above that of the rest, not only does the Spirit of Christ not say this (though in His Father's time I am sure the Lord of all met with Mary and the clan), but records that Christ referred to all who do the will of His Father as being "my mother and my brethren:"
Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother. The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side. (Matthew 12:47-50; 13:1)
