Who are my mother and my brothers?
Jesus uses this question to teach the people. AT: "I will tell you who are really my mother and brothers" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
whoever does ... that person is
"those who do ... they are"
that person is my brother, and sister, and mother
This is a metaphor that means Jesus' disciples belong to Jesus' spiritual family. This is more important than belonging to his physical family. AT: "that person is like a brother, sister, or mother to me" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
