While studying James (the brother of Jesus) I read some about Jesus as a child. Imagine as a parent, having a child who was perfect-really! Never a lie, exaggeration, attitude, nothing but perfect obedience and attitude. I wonder how his brothers and sisters (Scripture records at least 6 of them) related to Jesus. Did they try to emulate Him as their oldest brother? Did His perfection convict them? Were they jealous of Him? What did they think when He was proclaimed Messiah?
Early in His ministry they thought He was crazy, but later they came around to believe.
It's interesting to think about having a perfect child/brother, an issue none of us have!
