“For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,”
Both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters — the sanctifier and the sanctified share one source; Christ's identification with humanity is so complete that he claims kinship with us. Shame would attach to him if he denied this brotherhood.
