Technically, though, they are all half-siblings, since Jesus did not have an earthly, biological father.
Scripture upholds the virgin birth just as clearly as it denies the perpetual virginity of Jesus' mother, Mary.
In the earliest church, the virgin birth was maintained but "perpetual virginity" is not mentioned for the first couple of centuries, as I understand it.
Some argue based on John 19:26-27 that Mary had no children to care for her; however, pairing this with the other scriptures mentioned above means that there must be some other reason that Jesus pronounced John to be Mary's caretaker.(less)
