1 Now Jesus left that place and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him. 2 When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue. Many who heard him were astonished, saying, |Where did he get these ideas? And what is this wisdom that has been given to him? What are these miracles that are done through his hands? 3 Isn't this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And aren't his sisters here with us?| And so they took offense at him. 4 Then Jesus said to them, |A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown, and among his relatives, and in his own house.| Mark 6:1-4, New English Translation.
