*
Leaving that place He came into His own country ,
accompanied by His disciples .
*
On the Sabbath He proceeded to teach in the synagogue ;
and many ,
as they heard Him ,
were astonished . »
Where did he acquire all this ?«
they asked . »
What is this wisdom that has been given to him ?
And what are these marvellous miracles which his hands perform ?
*
Is not this the carpenter ,
Mary '
s son ,
the brother of James and Joses ,
Jude and Simon ?
And do not his sisters live here among us ?«
So they turned angrily away .
*
But Jesus said to them , »
There is no Prophet without honour except in his own country ,
and among his own relatives ,
and in his own home .«
*
And He could not do any miracle there ,
except that He laid His hands on a few who were out of health and cured them ;
and
*
He wondered at their unbelief .
So He went round the adjacent villages ,
teaching .
