Jesus Preaches in Nazareth

16

Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read,

17

the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written:

18

“The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,

19

to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

20

Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on Him,

21

and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”
