In his epistles Paul does refer to James, brother of Jesus, but in circumstances where the term 'brother of Jesus' could be a title for the leader of the Jerusalem Church, much as some clergy even today are sometimes called 'Father' or 'Brother'. Paul seems not to have realised that Jesus had lived and died in Palestime in the quite recent past. The author of the Epistle of James does give us his name but does not tell us that he was either the brother or a disciple of Jesus.
There is no convincing proof that Jesus had brothers, other than the gospel references, and if the gospels are in doubt so too is the existence of Jesus of Nazareth in first-century Palestine.

According to Catholic doctrine and 2000 years of tradition, Mary was a perpetual virgin and had no children besides Jesus. In the culture of the time any close relative was referred to as a brother or sister, especially cousins. For more information click on this link.
After Jesus' birth, Joseph and Mary had other children, Jesus' half brothers and sisters. That is evident from the question inhabitants of Nazareth later asked about Jesus: "Is this not the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us?" (Matthew 1:25; 13:55, 56; Mark 6:3) We can conclude from this that Jesus' immediate family consisted of his parents, four brothers, and at least two sisters.
