Jesus' true relatives

The saying of Jesus concerning his true relatives is found in the Canonical gospels of Mark and Matthew.

Jesus and his Apostles, from the Russian Siysky Gospel, 1340.

In the Bible

There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing
without, sent unto him, calling him. And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee. And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren? And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my
brother, and my sister, and mother.

From Matthew 12:46–50:

While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and
his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in
heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

Apocryphal version

A re-organized version also appears in the Gospel of Thomas (Patterson-Meyer Translation):

⁹⁹ The disciples said to him, "Your brothers and your mother are
standing outside." He said to them, "Those here who do what my Father wants are my brothers and my mother. They are the ones who will enter my Father's kingdom." ¹⁰⁰ They showed Jesus a gold coin and said to him, "The Roman emperor's people demand taxes from us." He said to them, "Give the emperor what belongs to the emperor, give God what belongs to God, and give me what is mine." ¹⁰¹ "Whoever does not hate [father] and mother as I do cannot be my [disciple], and whoever does [not] love [father and] mother as I do cannot be my [disciple]. For my mother [...], but my true
[mother] gave me life."

Verse 100 (Caesar's Coin) is similar to Mark 12:13-17 and Luke 20.22-26. Verse 101 (Love Jesus/God more than your family) is similar to Matthew 10:37 and Luke 14:26-33.

gollark: I expect quantum stuff would probably just be special-purpose hardware running specific tasks while coordinated by classical computers.

gollark: There is Shor's algorithm, which lets you factor primes much faster or something.

gollark: Come to think of it, we could probably put a lot of computing hardware into the solar power stuff, which presumably has a lot of power and some cooling.

gollark: The main constraints for high-performance computer stuff *now* are heat and power, or I guess sometimes networking between nodes.

gollark: Also, for random real-world background, there are only two companies making (high-performance, actually widely used) CPUs: Intel and AMD, and two making GPUs: AMD and Nvidia. Other stuff (flash storage, mainboards, RAM, whatever else) is made by many more manufacturers. Alienware and whatnot basically just buy parts from them, possibly design their own cases (and mainboards for laptops, to some extent), and add margin.
