"And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And the multitude sat about him,.... In a circle, all around him, to hear him preach; so that there was no such thing as the messenger coming near him; but
the message being whispered from one to another, it came to those who sat nearest him: and they said unto him, behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee: in five of Beza's ancient copies, and in his most ancient one, are added, and thy sisters: agreeably, Christ hereafter makes mention of sister, as well as mother and brother; See Gill on Mat 12:47 , and so it is read in the Alexandrian copy.
