No.
There are about ten cases in the New Testament where "brothers" and "sisters" of the Lord are mentioned (Matt. 12:46, Matt. 13:55, Mark 3:31-34, Mark 6:3, Luke 8: 19-20, John 2:12, 7:3, 5, 10, Acts 1:14, 1 Cor. 9:5).
In trying to understand these verses, keep in mind that the term "brother" (Greek: Adelphe) has a broad meaning in the Bible. Is not limited to the literal meaning of a brother or half brother. The same goes for "sister" (Adelphe) and the plural "brothers" (adelphoi). The Old Testament shows that "brother" had a wide range of semantic meaning and can refer to any male relative of those who are not descended (male relatives of those who are descendants are known as "parents") and are not descended from you (your male descendants, regardless of the number of generations, are its "children"), and close relatives such as cousins, who are members of the family by marriage or by law and not by blood, and even friends or mere political allies (2 Sam. 1:26, Amos 1:9).
Many, for example, Abraham is called "brother" (Gen. 14:14), although, being the son of Haran, the brother of Abraham (Gen. 11:26-28), was actually the nephew of Abraham. Similarly, Jacob is called the "brother" of his uncle Laban (Gen. 29:15). Kish and Eleazar were the sons of Mahli. Kish had sons of his own, but Eleazar had no sons, only daughters, who married their "brethren", the sons of Kish. These "brothers" were really their cousins (1 Chr. 23:21-22).
The terms "brothers", "brother" and "sister" does not refer only to close relatives. Sometimes it means that the family (Deut. 23:7, Neh. 5:7, Jer. 34:9) as the reference to the forty-two "brethren" of King Azariah (2 kg. 10:13 — 14).
Because neither Hebrew nor Aramaic (the language spoken by Christ and his disciples) had a special meaning the word "cousin", the speakers of those languages can use the word "brother" or a circumlocution, as "the son of my uncle. "circumlocution, but they are clumsy, so Jews often used" brother. "
The New Testament writers were brought in through the Aramaic equivalent of "brothers" within the meaning of the two cousins and children of the same father and other relatives and even family members. When written in Greek, as did the translators of the Septuagint did. (The Septuagint was the Greek version of the Hebrew Bible, which was translated by Hellenistic Jews a century or two before the birth of Christ and was the version of the Bible from which most of the quotes from the Old Testament are the New Testament are taken.)
In the Septuagint the Hebrew word that includes both siblings and cousins was translated as Adelphe, which in Greek usually has the sense that the English "brother" has. Unlike the Hebrew or Aramaic, Greek has a word for cousin, anepsios, but the translators of the Septuagint Adelphe used, even for true cousins.
When Jesus was in the temple at the age of twelve years, the context suggests that he was the only son of Mary and Joseph. There is no indication in this episode of any other child in the family (Luke 2:41-51). Jesus grew up in Nazareth, and the people of Nazareth referred to him as "the son of Mary" (Mark 6:3), not as a son of Mary. "In fact, others in the Gospels are never referred to as the sons of Mary, even when they are called Jesus' brothers. " If their children were, in fact, it would be strange use.
Fundamentalists insist that "the brothers of the Lord" must be interpreted in the strict sense. Consider this line: "Michal daughter of Saul had no children until his death" (2 Sam. 6:23). Let's suppose you had children after their death?
There is also the burial of Moses. The book of Deuteronomy says that no one knew the location of his grave "until this day" (Deut. 34:6, Knox). However, we know that no one has known since that day either. The examples could be multiplied, but you get the idea, nothing can be proved by the use of the word "until" in Matthew 1:25.

The Church firmly believes, pronouces professing that the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph remained chaste throughout their lives. Its sole purpose was to our Lord in this world and be the parents of him. On the one hand, that could dream of committing the act of marriage with the Mother of God? It is inconceivable.
Neither children after Jesus.
I made an exhaustive study on this before it became a Catholic and came to the conclusion that academic based in Jewish tradition (Mary and Joseph were Jews), what the Bible says and the history of Christianity, there is no other conclusion logic that the perpetual virginity of Mary.
The Bible mentions brothers of Jesus in Matthew 13:55, Mark 6:3 and Paul in Galatians 1:19. Interpretata This can be a spiritual point of view but as brothers.
Catholic.She I could have had children after Jesus Christ, but there is no clear evidence.It would contradict our faith, if you think otherwise, but think that's probably why you asked.
No I do not think that Mary had children, only Jesus. At the foot of the cross he said to his mother, "Woman, behold your son!" Then he said to the disciple: "Behold your mother!" And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home. If Jesus had siblings Mary, his mother has lived with them is not one of the disciples of Jesus.

believe they are (1) to see there.
But Muslims say he was the only son of Mary
No, and this was a belief of the early Christian Church as well. Read the writings of church leaders of the 1st and second century, and you'll see in his writings.
No, no, not a matter of conviction, I know the truth, Jesus was her only son who were dying for our sins and at the same time given to his suffering, his Mother to St. John, but you really gave all of us as our Mother.
Thanks, love and God bless

edition - ((Baby)) respond to my great friend and long time no see.
NO!
she was a virgin, was a gift from god
Mary only gave birth to Jesus Christ.
Then it would not be a virgin, she? So, nope. (if you go by the Bible, s)
The Bible speaks of Jesus, spending time with his brothers - who had more children.
Hmm, I do not think she was always a virgin, and if all of the same way it did then we would be worshiping Jesus as welcome.
So I guess that's not my
No, I had only one child and the child Jesus.
No, of course not. There is absolutely no evidence of such a thing, although some twist Scriptures because of ignorance to claim that nonsense. It is also theologically impossible, and if true it means that Jesus is an impostor as being the Messiah. He would make the best liar in history. Obviously, this is an attack on the faith of the father of lies. There is also the problem of the fact that history has not recorded any descendants. Moreover, if Jesus was not just a child why it was the blessed mother to Saint John and the Church for the care of Jesus on the cross. Would not have happened if he had brothers in that culture. That is just silly anti-Catholic intolerance without evidence of Shree. God bless!

I doubt that one existed. There is no proof they did. But if they did, common sense should tell you that it is not possible for a virgin giving birth (even with the arguments of IVF, etc, these advances were not known at 1CE, sex is the only way)
It would be hard to imagine a married woman (probably about 15 years old) and having only one child in a society without contraception, and the belief in a divine edict demanding people play.
No I do not, because when Jesus died, and Mary was 33 years too old to have more children by then, was her only son.
Edit:
If the Bible says he was talking to his brothers that mean he was talking to his apostles and what we have and that everyone respect our brothers and sisters, even if we do not have any relationship with them at all.
Jesus had brothers and sisters:
James, Joseph (the youngest), Judas and Simon, and at least 2 - sisters (names not mentioned), (Matthew 13:55-56), (Mark 6:3), (Mark 15: 40), (Mark 16: 1).
I'm not Catholic, but my Bible says the same as a Catholic. In Matthew 13v55 we read about Jesus, "Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not the name of his mother Mary and his brothers are James Joseph Simon and Judas? Are not all his sisters with us? … "read too much 6v3 brand like this.
These questions were asked when Jesus returned to his hometown, where his neighbors would be very familiar with the members of his family.
We have an obligation to refer to the Bible for the correct answers not our own opinions.
Good question x
I'm not Catholic, but Mary has several others after Jesus, some of which contributed to the New Testament.
I do not think she was a virgin!
But she may have had more children.
Yes, the Bible says Mary had children. Christ had at least 4 siblings.
is just a stupid thing, even to celebrate virgin marys days
No. .. because we would be too religious
