54 Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. "Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?" they asked. |
55 "Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother's name Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? |
56 Aren't all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?" |
57 And they took offense at him.
But Jesus said to them, "Only in his hometown and in his own house is a prophet without honor." |
58 And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith. |
