Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas?

Isn't this the carpenter? Isn't this Mary's son and the
brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren't his sisters here with us?”
And they took offense at him.

~ Barnabas
Acts 15:22-32
22 Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church,
decided to choose some of their own men and send them to Antioch with Paul and
Barnabas. They chose Judas (called Barsabbas) and Silas, two men who were
leaders among the brothers.
23 With them they sent the following letter: The apostles and
elders, your brothers, To the Gentile believers in Antioch, Syria and Cilicia:
Greetings.
24 We have heard that some went out from us without our
authorization and disturbed you, troubling your minds by what they said.
25 So we all agreed to choose some men and send them to you
with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul—
26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ.
27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to confirm by
word of mouth what we are writing.
28 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden
you with anything beyond the following requirements:
29 You are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood,
from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality. You will do well
to avoid these things. Farewell.
30 The men were sent off and went down to Antioch, where they
gathered the church together and delivered the letter.
31 The people read it and were glad for its encouraging
message.
32 Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, said much
to encourage and strengthen the brothers.
