Mark 6:3 names Jesus’ brothers as James, Joses (Joseph), Judas(Jude), and Simon. Matthew and Mark mention sisters but do not tell us how many sisters or their names. There are several theories about Jesus’ siblings. One holds that Joseph had children from a previous marriage but only shared one child, Jesus, with Mary.
