Luke 4:23-31

²³Jesus replied, “I'm sure you'll repeat this proverb to me, ‘Physician, heal yourself!’ and ask, ‘Why don't you do here in your own hometown what we heard you did in Capernaum?’

²⁴But I tell you the truth, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.

²⁵I guarantee that there were many widows in Israel during the time of Elijah when there was a drought for three and a half years, causing a great famine throughout the country.

²⁶Yet Elijah wasn't sent to any of them. He was sent to a widow in Zarephath in the region of Sidon!

²⁷Even though there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha, the only one who was healed was Naaman the Syrian!”

²⁸When they heard this everyone in the synagogue became furious.

²⁹They jumped to their feet and threw him out of the town. Then they dragged him to the top of the hill on which the town was built in order to throw him off the cliff.

³⁰But he walked right through them and went on his way.

³¹Jesus went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee. On Sabbath he started teaching them.
