Mat: 11:11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

In other words He is not of Mary. She is not His mother genetically.

What a silly thing to say. What about this:

But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law (Galatians 4:4, RSV)

According to Scripture, Jesus is indeed born of woman. So there goes your theory, shot to hell.

Of course she is born of a woman, she is just not of the woman. The bible does this all the time as in where it calls Joseph Jesus's Father. He is but he isn't. Jesus is born through a woman which can also be stated of a woman but He is not of her in every sense. The only sense left is the egg.
