Perpetual Virginity of Blessed Mary
The 'Perpetual Virginity of Blessed Mary' is an essay written by Saint Jerome in the late 4th century, addressing the claims of Helvidius regarding the Virgin Mary's marital status and motherhood. Jerome argues that Joseph was only a putative husband, that the 'brethren' mentioned in the Gospels were actually Jesus' cousins, and that virginity is superior to marriage. This work is notable for its early defense of Mary's perpetual virginity and its influence on Christian doctrine regarding her status.
