Jesus Begins His Ministry in Galilee

Matthew 4:12-17

And Jesus having heard that John was delivered up, did withdraw to Galilee,

and having left Nazareth, having come, he dwelt at Capernaum that is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtalim,

that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

`Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations! --

the people that is sitting in darkness saw a great light, and to those sitting in a region and shadow of death--light arose to them.'

From that time began Jesus to proclaim and to say, `Reform ye, for come nigh hath the reign of the heavens.'
