Please take this at face value, it is not a trick question. Which one of Jesus’ Disciple’s was His mother?

His mother was his mother
A point of agreement for all of us. Thanks for clearing that up, Ralph.
ads, is your point that the Blessed Mother is, as Luther said, the noblest gem in all Christianity, except for Jesus Himself? If it is, then a high five from me.

So, all the MEN that Jesus appointed as his Apostles are his mother?

Actually, he did not say “Who are my mothers” but "who is my mother>’
Did anyone do his Father’s will better?

Exactly. IF one is reading this literally, and saying that Jesus is dismissing His Mother, which ONE of the Disciples was his mother?..He says, ‘My mother and brothers,’ gesturing to these men. He uses (at least it’s translated), ‘brothers’ – plural, but, mother is singular. Which one is His mother?

Reply: Good question
Here is your answer:
Luke Chapter 1 (same in KJV)
"26 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And he came to her and said, “Hail, full of grace, * the Lord is with you!” * 29 But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. 30* And the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31* And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. 32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there will be no end." 34** And Mary said to the angel, “How shall this be, since I have no husband?” 35 And the angel said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born * will be called holy, the Son of God.*
God bless you!
NOTE: today MSN.com ran a home page article on what PE Obama, plans to do to religion. It’s not too earky to pray.
It is a MUST READ for all Christians!

Indeed!
Is Abs trying to say that His disciples (including His mother), which we would call “the Church”, are “His mother”?

Isn’t the Church his bride?

*ads (which, incidentally, should be read as, A. D. S., not a word), not Abs, and no.

This is actually an important verse to consider. If Mary did not do his will, than there is a lot of problems with the NT, as clearly she is described as being full of Grace. If she did do God’s will, then she was not there to disrupt or interfere with his Ministry

Oh! Ooops! Quite right you are!
Very bad of me indeed! I have no idea what came over me to make that misreading of your name, other than probably a pair of really sore eyeballs on my part.

The one with the “I am Jesus’ Mother” merit-badge that His mother made for Him to give out to those who were His REAL Mother,… perhaps?
