Luke 4:22-29

Williams(i) 22 So they all began to speak well of Him and to wonder at the gracious words that fell from His lips, and yet they continued to say, "Is He not Joseph's son?" 23 He said to them, "Doubtless you will quote this proverb to me, 'Doctor, cure yourself! Do the things here in your hometown that we hear you did in Capernaum.'" 24 He added, "I solemnly say to you, no prophet is welcome in his native neighborhood. 25 But in truth I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in Elijah's time, when the heaven was closed for three years and a half, and there was a great famine over all the land, 26 and yet Elijah was not sent to a single one of them except to a widow at Zarephath in Sidon. 27 And there were many lepers in Israel in Elisha's time, and yet not one of them was cured except Naaman the Syrian." 28 Then all the people in the synagogue, on hearing these things, were filled with fury, 29 and they rose up and drove Him out of town and took Him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, to hurl Him down the cliff.
