Jesus comes to his own town and teaches in the synagogue there. His former neighbours are confused - “Where did this man get all this?” They ask. They see him as ‘one of theirs’, “Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Jude and Simon, and are not his sisters here with us?” Jesus was amazed at their unbelief, he could do no deed of power there, except he laid his hadns on a few sick people and cured them.
