Marc 3:34 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 3:34

And he looked round about on them which sat about him
To find out his disciples among them, and point them out particularly, by stretching forth his hand towards them: and said,

behold my mother and my brethren:
not in a natural, but in a spiritual sense; his mother, because, in regeneration, he was formed in them; his brethren, because, by adoption, his God was their God, his Father their Father; (See Gill on Matthew 12:49).

Marc 3:34 In-Context

32 Et on lui dit: Voilà, ta mère et tes frères sont là dehors, qui te demandent.
33 Mais il répondit: Qui est ma mère, ou qui sont mes frères?
34 Et jetant les yeux sur ceux qui étaient autour de lui, il dit: Voici ma mère et mes frères.
35 Car quiconque fera la volonté de Dieu, celui-là est mon frère, et ma sœur et ma mère.
