This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Mat 12:46-50. His mother and brethren seek to speak with Him and the answer.
While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren - (See on Mat 13:55, Mat 13:56).
stood without, desiring to speak with him - “and could not come at Him for the press” (Luk 8:19). For what purpose these came, we learn from Mar 3:20, Mar 3:21. In His zeal and ardor He seemed indifferent both to food and repose, and “they went to lay hold of Him” as one “beside Himself.” Mark (Mar 3:32) says graphically, “And the multitude sat about Him” - or “around Him.”
