1). They assumed that Joseph was
the father of Jesus.
a). Luke 3:23 And Jesus himself
began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of
Joseph, which was the sone of Heli,
2). In the Gospels
Jesus referred to God as his Father. It is not recorded in the gospels that
Jesus ever referred to Joseph as his father.
a). Luke 2:48, 49 And when they saw him, they were
amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us?
behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
2:49 And he said
unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my
Father's business?
b). John 10:22-32 And
it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
10:23 And Jesus
walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
10:24 Then came
the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to
doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
10:25 Jesus
answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my
Father's name, they bear witness of me.
10:26 But ye
believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
10:27 My sheep
hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
10:28 And I give
unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man
pluck them out of my hand.
10:29 My Father,
which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out
of my Father's hand.
10:30 I and my
Father are one.
10:31 Then the
Jews took up stones again to stone him.
10:32 Jesus
answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of
those works do ye stone me?

1). Jesus had four half brothers,
that is, children from the union of Joseph and Mary. There were also at least
two un-named sisters mentioned in the next verse. The Scripture clearly says
that Joseph and Mary were intimate after Jesus was born.
a). Matthew 1:18-25 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this
wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came
together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
1:19 Then Joseph her husband,
being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to
put her away privily.
1:20 But while he thought on these
things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream,
saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife:
for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
1:21 And she shall bring forth a
son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from
their sins.
1:22 Now all this was done, that
it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be
with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel,
which being interpreted is, God with us.
1:24 Then Joseph being raised from
sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
1:25 And knew her not till she had
brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
