*
He went away from there and came to his own country ,
and his disciples followed him .
*
And when the Sabbath had come ,
he began to teach in the synagogue .
And many who heard him were astonished ,
saying , »
Where did this man get these things ?
And what wisdom is this which is given to him ,
that such mighty works are performed by his hands !
*
Is not this the carpenter ,
the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon ?
Are not his sisters here with us ?«
And they took offense at him .
*
But Jesus said to them , »
A prophet is not without honor except in his own country ,
among his own relatives ,
and in his own house .«
*
Now he could do no mighty work there ,
except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them .
*
And he marveled because of their unbelief .
Then he went around the villages teaching .
