For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
All Commentaries on Mark 3:35 Go To Mark 3
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
She did the Father’s will. It was this in her that the Lord magnified, not merely that her flesh gave birth to flesh…. When he said, “Blessed are they who hear the Word of God and keep it,” he was in effect saying: “My mother whom you have called blessed is blessed for the reason that she keeps the Word of God, not that the Word was made flesh in her and dwelt among us, but that she keeps the very Word of God through which she was made and which was made flesh in her.” .
