St. Matthew 13.54-58: "Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works? Is not this the carpenter's son? And is not his mother called Mary?"
"By enduring the hardship of work in union with Jesus the carpenter of Nazareth and the one crucified on Calvary, man cooperates in a certain fashion with the Son of God in his redemptive work. he shows himself to be a disciple of Christ by carrying the cross, daily, in the work he is called to accomplish" (Bl. John Paul II, Laborem Exercens).
