From my own family, the maternal and paternal side uncles and aunts shared three boys’ names and two girls’ names. So from that perspective I think the jury on the Talmud Ossett is out. However I wouldn’t entirely rule it out.
If you believe the gospel accounts, Jesus was given a proper burial by Joseph of Arimathea who, legend has it, was Mary’s uncle. It’s entirely possible that through triple taxation (Roman, local and Temple tax) that Jesus’ family may have become poor while the very rich were largely unaffected by extra taxes.
Whether or not you believe that Jesus rose frome the dead it would seem that a powerful relative came to the rescue when it came to giving him a decent burial.

The Bible is what it is, and people try in vain to interpret it to their will. Is it not obvious? Jesus rose on the third day. His tomb was empty there afterward. What more do you need to know?! I find it absurd that some will create their interpretation as logic, when it clearly makes no sense whatsoever. Jesus did not have two tombs-period!
