Is not this man the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? Are not his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas? Are not all his sisters with us?
The crowd uses these questions to express their belief that they know who Jesus is and that he is just an ordinary man. AT: "He is just the son of a carpenter. We know his mother Mary, and his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas. And all his sisters are with us, too." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
Where did he get all these things?
The crowd uses this question to show their understanding that Jesus must have gotten his abilities from somewhere. They were probably expressing their doubt that he got his abilities from God. AT: "He must have gotten his ability to do these things from somewhere!" or "We do not know where he got these abilities!" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
