That was Jesus using hyperbole, otherwise Christians wouldnt acknowledge their own biological parents, which has never occured outside of fringe heretical sects. A lot of Protestant confusion revolves around misinterpreting when Jesus is using Hyperbole, and then assume He is using hyperbole when He isnt (like with the Eucharist, which He doesnt just talk about as one off like He does with "turn the other cheek" and " call no one your father")
