(14)And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and a report went out into all the region round about concerning him. (15)And he taught in their synagogues, being universally admired. (16)And he came to Nazareth, where he was brought up; and he went, according to his usual custom, into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, and rose up to read. (17)And there was given to him the book of the prophet Isaiah: and unrolling the volume, he found the passage where it is written, (18)"The spirit of the Lord is upon me, for the work whereunto he hath anointed me; he hath sent me to preach glad tidings to the poor; to heal the contrite in heart; to proclaim liberty to the captives; and restore sight to the blind; to send forth the bruised free from bonds; (19)to publish the acceptable year of the Lord." (20)And rolling up the volume, he gave it to the attendant officer, and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were attentively fixed on him. (21)And he began to say to them, To day this scripture is fulfilled in your ears. (22)And all concurred in their testimony to him, and marvelled at the gracious words which proceeded from his mouth. And they said, Is not this the son of Joseph? (23)And he said unto them, Ye will probably say to me this parable, Physician, heal thyself! the works which we have heard to have been performed by thee at Capernaum, do the like here in thy own country. (24)But he said, Verily, I say unto you, that no prophet is acceptable in his own country. (25)Now I tell you of a certainty, that there were many widows in the days of Elias, in Israel, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a grievous famine was upon all the land. (26)And unto none of them was Elias sent, but unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, to a widow woman. (27)And many lepers were in Israel in the days of the prophet Elisha, and no one of them was cleansed, but Naaman the Syrian. (28)And they were all filled with rage in the synagogue, when they heard these observations: (29)and rising up, dragged him out of the city, and led him to the brow of the hill, on which their city was built, in order to cast him down headlong: (30)but he passing through the midst of them, went away.
