Mary
Tertullian did not maintain the tradition of Mary ever-virgin, believed that Christ had a normal birth, that his brothers were not his cousins as later Fathers maintained.
Helvidius later invoked this statement by Tertullian as an authority, but was denied by Jerome curtly in the words "As to Tertullian, I have nothing else to say except that he was not a man of the church".
