Prophecy Fulfilled

     Mary's child breathed his last. She saw the sword Simeon had foretold, piercing his body and her soul as well. 

     When the risen Savior appeared to his disciples, he said, "Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms." 

     After he arose, having told them to wait until they were given "power from on high," the disciples and other believers, including women, about 120 in all, spent days praying in an upper room." 

     Among them were Mary and Jesus' half-brothers. This is the last we know about Mary, except for a report that later, she may have lived in Ephesus, where her new "son," John, was ministering. 

     Two short New Testament books are believed to be written by James and Jude, both half-brothers of Jesus.
