Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

Rejection at Nazareth

⁵³ When Jesus had finished these parables, he left there. ⁵⁴ He went to his home town^(A) and began to teach them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, ‘Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?^{(B) 55} Isn’t this the carpenter’s son?^(C) Isn’t his mother called Mary, and his brothers James,^(D) Joseph,^[a] Simon, and Judas?^{(E) 56} And his sisters, aren’t they all with us? So where does he get all these things? ’ ⁵⁷ And they were offended by him.

Jesus said to them, ‘A prophet is not without honour except in his home town and in his household.’^{(F) 58} And he did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.
