His brethren - His near kinsmen, who for some time did not believe; it seems not till near his death.

13 And when they had entered, they went up ainto the upper room where they were staying: bPeter, James, John, and Andrew; Philip and Thomas; Bartholomew and Matthew; James the son of Alphaeus and cSimon the Zealot; and dJudas the son of James.
14 aThese all continued with one1 accord in prayer and supplication, with bthe women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with cHis brothers.
Matthias Chosen
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the1 disciples (altogether the number aof names was about a hundred and twenty), and said,
16 “Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, awhich the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, bwho became a guide to those who arrested Jesus;
17 for ahe was numbered with us and obtained a part in bthis ministry.”
