Then came his mother and his brethren and could not come at him for the preasse And it was told him by certain which said Thy mother and thy brethren stand without desiring to see thee And he answered and said vnto them My mother and my brethren are those which heare the word of God do it WHat the occasion might bee which moued our Saviour to make this reply Interpreters on all parts doe not agree Tertullian Chrysostome and Theophylact are of opinion that Christ here tax'd his Mother and Brethren as if the scope of their comming had bin to shew their kinred with our Saviour and their authority over him Others thinke hee reprehended onely their vnseasonable and inconsiderate proclaiming of their affinity with him because by this meanes say some the divell might take an opportunity to extinguish that opinion which some a little before began to conceiue of his divinity But Hierome thinks rather he blamed by this answer him which interrupted him in his preaching as who should tempt him whether he would preferre flesh bloud before the spirituall worke of his Vocation Of all these the Popish Writers can best brooke them which cast any aspersion of a fault vpon our Lady whom the Councell of Trent in the 6.
