nsb Luke:4:14-30
nsb@Luke:4:14 @ Jesus was directed by Gods Spirit to return to Galilee. His reputation spread through out the region.
nsb@Luke:4:15 @ He taught in their synagogues and was praised by all.
nsb@Luke:4:16 @ Then he returned to Nazareth the place where he was raised. He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath day. This was his custom. There he stood up to read.
nsb@Luke:4:17 @ He was given the book of the prophet Isaiah. He opened the book and found the place where it was written:
nsb@Luke:4:18 @ »The Spirit of Jehovah is upon me. He anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind. To set at liberty those who are bruised.
nsb@Luke:4:19 @ »To proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah.« (Isaiah strkjv@61:1)
nsb@Luke:4:20 @ He closed the book, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.
nsb@Luke:4:21 @ »Today,« he said, »you heard this scripture fulfilled.«
nsb@Luke:4:22 @ All witnessed this and wondered at the kind words that he spoke. They said: »Is this not Josephs son?«
nsb@Luke:4:23 @ Then he said: »You will no doubt say this proverb to me, physician heal yourself. That which we heard was done at Capernaum do also here in your own country.«
nsb@Luke:4:24 @ He continued: »Truly I tell you no prophet is accepted in his own country.
nsb@Luke:4:25 @ »I tell you truth. There were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah. There was no rain from heaven three years and six months. There came a great famine over all the land.
nsb@Luke:4:26 @ »Elijah was not sent to any of them. He was only sent to Zarephath in the land of Sidon. She was a widow.
nsb@Luke:4:27 @ »There were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet. Only one of them was cleansed, Naaman the Syrian.«
nsb@Luke:4:28 @ Everyone in the synagogue was angry when they heard these things.
nsb@Luke:4:29 @ They rose up to drive him out of the city. They led him to the top of the hill where their city was built to throw him down the hill.
nsb@Luke:4:30 @ But he passed through the midst of them and went his way.
