Notice it was for “a sin offering”, this verse proves Mary was not sinless as the catholics claim.

Concur....Joseph and Mary knew they were sinners. No where in Scripture is an exception carved out for Mary. No where.

By the same logic, it’s a good thing Jesus was baptized for the forgiveness of his sins.

They were Jewish, they followed Jewish law.

[Campion]

No where in Scripture is an exception carved out for Mary.

1. Jesus created his own mother.
2. Jesus was bound by the law to honor his mother, and because he obeyed perfectly, he honored her perfectly.
3. Nobody is "honored" by being created in the state of original sin; sin of any kind honors nobody.
