<strong>Word</strong> <strong>Pictures</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> NT [Mat<strong>the</strong>w: Chapter 12].<br />

12:47 Aleph, B, L, Old Syriac, omit this verse as do Westcott and<br />

Hort. It is genu<strong>in</strong>e <strong>in</strong> Mr 3:32; Lu 8:20. It was probably copied<br />

<strong>in</strong>to Mat<strong>the</strong>w from Mark or Luke.<br />

12:49 {Behold my mo<strong>the</strong>r and my bro<strong>the</strong>rs} (\idou h• m•t•r mou kai<br />

hoi adelphoi mou\). A dramatic wave of <strong>the</strong> hand towards his<br />

disciples (learners) accompanied <strong>the</strong>se words. Jesus loved his<br />

mo<strong>the</strong>r and bro<strong>the</strong>rs, but <strong>the</strong>y were not to <strong>in</strong>terfere <strong>in</strong> his<br />

Messianic work. The real spiritual family of Jesus <strong>in</strong>cluded all<br />

who follow him. But it was hard for Mary to go back to Nazareth<br />

and leave Jesus with <strong>the</strong> excited throng so great that he was not<br />

even stopp<strong>in</strong>g to eat (Mr 3:20).<br />
