was_ at the same hour, in the
which Jesus said unto him, Thy
son liveth: and himself
believed, and his whole house.
54 This _is_ again the second
miracle _that_ Jesus did, when
he was come out of Judea into
Galilee.
§ 28. Jesus is rejected at Nazareth, and fixes his abode at Capernaum.
Matthew.
CH. IV. 13-16.
13 And leaving Nazareth, he
came and dwelt in Capernaum,
which is upon the sea-coast,
in the borders of Zabulon and
Napthalim;
14 That it might be fulfilled
which was spoken by Esaias the
prophet, saying,(117)
15 The land of Zabulon, and
the land of Napthalim, _by_
the way of the sea, beyond
Jordan, Galilee of the
Gentiles:
16 The people which sat in
darkness, saw great light; and
to them which sat in the
region and shadow of death,
light is sprung up.
Luke.
CH. IV. 16-31.
16 And he came to Nazareth,
where he had been brought up:
and, as his custom was, he
went into the synagogue on the
sabbath-day, and stood up for
to read.
17 And there was delivered
unto him the book of the
prophet Esaias. And when he
had opened the book, he found
the place where it was
written,(118)
18 The Spirit of the Lord _is_
upon me, because he hath
anointed me to preach the
gospel to the poor; he hath
sent me to heal the
brokenhearted, to preach
deliverance to the captives,
and recovering of sight to the
blind, to set at liberty them
that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable
year of the Lord.
20 And he closed the book, and
he gave it again to the
minister,(119) and sat
down.(120) And the eyes of all
them that were in the
synagogue were fastened on
him.
21 And he began to say unto
them, This day is the
scripture fulfilled in your
ears.
22 And all bare him witness,
and wondered at the gracious
words which proceeded out of
his mouth. And they said, Is
not this Joseph’s son?
23 And he said unto them, Ye
will surely say unto me this
proverb, Physician, heal
thyself: whatsoever we have
heard done in Capernaum, do
also here in thy country.
24 And he said, Verily, I say
unto you, No prophet is
accepted in his own country.
25 But I tell you of a truth,
many widows were in Israel in
the days of Elias, when the
heaven was shut up three years
and six months, when great
famine was throughout all the
land:
26 But unto none of them was
Elias sent, save unto Sarepta,
a _city_ of Sidon, unto a
woman _that was_ a widow.(121)
27 And many lepers were in
Israel in the time of Eliseus
the prophet; and none of them
was cleansed, saving Naaman
the Syrian.(122)
28 And all they in the
synagogue, when they heard
these things, were filled with
wrath,
29 And rose up, and thrust him
out of the city, and led him
unto the brow of the
hill,(123) (whereon their city
was built,) that they might
cast him down headlong.
