>>Peter and Andrew, not mentioned as “blood brothers” could not have been blood brothers could they? <<

With as quickly as women died back then, from childbirth to other diseases, who knows? And multiple wives.

So it might be interesting to see how many “brothers” in the Bible have different mothers or fathers, yet are still called “brothers”

Let me look into it and get back.

multiple wives

Wow! Back when men were men!

This explains why the men invented the Sabbath. This whole thing about the temple was kind of like the shriners or something: "I'd cut the grass, honey, ah, I mean, honeys, but I have to go study Torah. You know how it is, it's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it. See you at Sundown. Gee it'll be too dark to cut the grass then, won't it. Oh Fiddle!"
