I listed the chapter and verse. You can see it for yourself.
 Quoting: ljsikes

Where? If you infer that “firstborn” means that Mary gave birth to children after Jesus, you need to do a bit of research. The term referred to the first child to open the womb, and does not imply that there were subsequent births.

I was responding to the question of whether Joseph and Mary ever had sex. They certainly would not have while Mary was carrying Jesus. But they did afterwards according to Matthew 1:25.

You still offer no proof of your assertion, and I have replied to you twice.

The proof is in verse 25.
It's right there in that verse - He knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son.

It's throughout the bible.

In Genesis, Adam knew his wife, and she conceived (gen 4:1)
Cain knew his wife, and she conceived (17)
Adam knew his wife again (25)


In Judges there is this: But the men would not hearken to him: so the man took his concubine, and brought her forth unto them; and they knew her, and abused her all the night until the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her go.

When the bible speaks of knowing a woman (or a man, as in the case of Lot), it's speaking of sex.

And there is nothing at all wrong with Joseph and Mary having sex. They were married.
