Mark 6:4 - Barnes' Notes

Mark 6:4

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.

6 And ^aHe marveled because of their unbelief. ^bThen He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching.
