a sect of Christian disciples who appeared in Arabia at the end of the fourth century, and taught that Mary had children by Joseph after the Lord's birth. They were not heretics, but doubtless honest opponents of the growing Mariolatry of the time. — Gieseler, Ch. Hist. div. 1, § 97; Walch, Hist. der Ketzereien, 3, 578; Epiphanius, Haeres. 78, § 19.
