The Rejection at Nazareth
Matthew 13:53-58
53
And it came to passe, that when Iesus had ended these parables, he departed thence,
54
And came into his owne countrey, and taught them in their Synagogue, so that they were astonied, and saide, Whence commeth this wisdome and great woorkes vnto this man?
55
Is not this the carpenters sonne? Is not his mother called Marie, and his brethren Iames and Ioses, and Simon and Iudas?
56
And are not his sisters all with vs? Whence then hath he all these things?
57
And they were offended with him. Then Iesus said to them, A Prophet is not without honour, saue in his owne countrey, and in his owne house.
58
And he did not many great woorkes there, for their vnbeliefes sake.
