Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
1 Then aHe went out from there and came to His own country, and His disciples followed Him.
2 And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were aastonished, saying, b“Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands!
3 Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and abrother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?” So they bwere offended at Him.
4 But Jesus said to them, a“A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house.”
5 aNow He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them.

Mark 6:1-6
Here we see two things: 1) Jude (Judah, Judas) was among Jesus’ siblings. 2) From Jesus’ own words (with a first, second, and a third witness in found in Matthew 13:57, Luke 4:24, and John 4:44 that) His work as a man was not going to be accepted in His own town, or even among His own family.
