Nice Joke! How can I say that my grand-grandpa is my biological brother? According to your law Jesus is "OOH Brother of DAVID"

Sohail I express my hearty congratulations to you for your nice explanation.

Please clarify the following

1. If mary was a descendant of Aaron, How she is his biological sister? Then jesus would have been the brother of David . Iam trying to work it out , but cant . Please explain your logic

2 . Bible does'nt says that mary is a levite. Bible says only that Elizabeth, the cousin of Mary was a levite. In bible Mary is the descendant of DAVID , not AARON.

Quran 3:35 doesnt states as you say, But that she was the daughter of Imran. Evidence is given below

The Noble Qur'an Al-'Imran 3:35-37

35. (Remember) when the wife of 'Imrân said: "O my Lord! I have vowed to You what (the child that) is in my womb to be dedicated for Your services (free from all worldly work; to serve Your Place of worship), so accept this, from me. Verily, You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knowing."

36. Then when she delivered her [child Maryam (Mary)], she said: "O my Lord! I have delivered a female child," - and Allâh knew better what she delivered, - "And the male is not like the female, and I have named her Maryam (Mary), and I seek refuge with You (Allâh) for her and for her offspring from Shaitan (Satan), the outcast."

Now. How you feel? I think some thing has gone wrong some where. But dont feel bad, bcause errors are human but forgiving is divinity.

May god forgive .

Thank you .

May God Bless you
