Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
53 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, that He departed from there.
54 aWhen He had come to His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this Man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
55 aIs this not the carpenter’s son? Is not His mother called Mary? And bHis brothers cJames, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
56 And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?”
57 So they awere offended at Him. But Jesus said to them, b“A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house.”
58 Now aHe did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
