Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
16 So He came to aNazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, bHe went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.
17 And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written:
18 “Thea Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me1 to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To bset at liberty those who are oppressed;
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me1 to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To bset at liberty those who are oppressed;
