It has been noted that Joseph’s absence from the record of Jesus ’ ministry is remarkable because Jesus ’ other family members ​ — his mother, brothers, and sisters — ​ are mentioned.
Väärib märkimist, et Joosepit pole mainitud pärast seda, kui algas Jeesuse teenistus, samas kui teisi tema pereliikmeid, tema ema, vendi ja õdesid, on aga mainitud.
