Mark 6:1-6

Jesus Rejected at Nazareth

^aAnd ¹Jesus went out from there and *came into ²^bHis hometown; and His disciples *followed Him. 2 And when the Sabbath came, He began ^ato teach in the synagogue; and ^bmany listeners were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things, and what is this wisdom given to this man, and such ¹miracles as these performed by His hands? 3 Is this man not ^athe carpenter, ^bthe son of Mary, and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Are not ^cHis sisters here with us?” And they were taking ^doffense at Him. 4 And Jesus was saying to them, “^aA prophet is not without honor except in ¹^bhis hometown and among his own relatives and in his own household.” 5 And He could do no ¹miracle there except that He ^alaid His hands on a few sick people and healed them. 6 And He was marveling at their unbelief.
^aAnd He was going around the villages teaching.

Luke 4:16-30

Jesus Rejected at Nazareth

16 And He came to ^aNazareth, where He had been brought up, and as was His custom, ^bHe entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and ^cstood up to read. 17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. And He opened the scroll and found the place where it was written,
18

“^aThe Spirit of the ¹Lord is upon Me,

Because He anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor.

He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives,

And recovery of sight to the blind,

To set free those who are oppressed,

^aTo proclaim the favorable year of the ¹Lord.”

20 And He ^aclosed the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and ^bsat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on Him. 21 And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your ¹hearing.” 22 And all were ¹speaking well of Him and marveling at the ²gracious words which were coming forth from His lips, and they were saying, “^aIs this not Joseph’s son?” 23 And He said to them, “No doubt you will quote this proverb to Me, ‘Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we heard took place ^aat Capernaum, do also here in ^byour hometown.’” 24 And He said, “Truly I say to you, ^ano prophet is welcome in his hometown. 25 But I say to you in truth, there were many widows in Israel ^ain the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years and six months, when a great famine came over all the land, 26 and yet Elijah was sent to none of them, but ^aonly to ¹Zarephath, in the land of ^bSidon, to a woman who was a widow. 27 And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed, but ^aonly Naaman the Syrian.” 28 And all the people in the synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things, 29 and they stood up and ^adrove Him out of the city, and led Him to the edge of the hill on which their city had been built, in order to throw Him down the cliff. 30 But ^apassing through their midst, He went on His way.
