Difficulties in Nazareth
The article explores Jesus’ return to Nazareth, where he faces the unbelief of his fellow townspeople. Although seen as the Messiah after his miracles in Capernaum, he is rejected, illustrating the proverb ‘No prophet is honoured in his own country.’
Matthew 13.57 (King James Version) :And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org
