I'm not living in an Oriental society where it's a cultural thing to address one another in these endearing terms of respect. I do however, have Chinese friends who call every male older than themselves "uncle". It's interesting that you like this interpretation, even if for just the sake of argument, but probably will take the exact oposite tack when trying to explain the bible calling someone "Jesus' brother."

How many women did Jesus call Daughter?

Why didnt he call the woman at the well Daughter

Why didn't He call Jairus's daughter Daughter. He called her Maid

Do you think it just a coincidence or a formality He called that young woman Daughter

Boy, it appears sola scriptura aint for you
