Matt 12:46 · Douay-Rheims

“As he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold his mother and his brethren stood without, seeking to speak to him.”

On this verse:

“Because He had spoken all the aforesaid things in the power of His Father’s majesty, therefore the Evangelist proceeds to tell what answer He made to one that told Him that His mother and His brethren waited for Him without; While he yet spake unto the people, his mother and his brethren stood without desiring to see him.”
