Joses Article
STEPBible TIPNR
Joses, also known as Joseph, was one of the sons of "the other" Mary (Matt 28.1 with Mrk 16:1). He is the brother of James "the Less" (or "the younger" - Mrk 15:40) who is traditionally identified with James the son of Alphaeus, who would therefore be Mary's husband. Thsi may be the same Alphaeus who is the father of Matthew, though this is uncertain. His mother Mary was present at the crucifixion, burial, and discovery of the empty tomb (Mat 27:56; Mrk.15.40, 47).
