Mark 6:1-9 ▼

1 And He came out thence and comes into His own country; and His disciples follow Him:

2 and it being the Sabbath day, He began to preach in the synagogue: and many hearing were astonished, saying, Whence are these things to this one? and, What wisdom is given unto Him? Such miracles are wrought by His hands.

3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary? the brother of James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? Are not His sisters here with us? And they were offended in Him.

4 And Jesus said to them; A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, and among his relatives, and in his own house.

5 And He was not able to do any miracle there, except laying hands on a few sick people, He healed them.

6 And He was astonished on account of their unbelief. And He went about the villages in a circuit teaching.

7 And He calls the twelve to Him, and began to send them out two by two; and He gave them authority over unclean spirits.

8 And He commanded them that they should take nothing for the way except staff only; no valise, no bread, no money in the girdle;

9 but having put on your sandals: and put not on two coats.
