Luke 4:14-21 (New International Version)
Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
14Jesus returned to Galilee in the power
of the Spirit, and news about him spread
through the whole countryside. 15He
taught in their synagogues, and
everyone praised him.
16He went to Nazareth, where he had
been brought up, and on the Sabbath
day he went into the synagogue, as was
his custom. And he stood up to read.
17The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was
handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the
place where it is written:
18"The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for
the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to release the oppressed,
19to proclaim the year of the Lord's
favor."
“The First Sermon Jesus Preached"
20Then he rolled up the scroll,
gave it back to the attendant and
sat down. The eyes of everyone
in the synagogue were fastened
on him, 21and he began by
saying to them, "Today this
scripture is fulfilled in your
hearing."
