Mark 6:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And when the Sabbath was come, he began to teach in the Synagogue, and many that heard him, were astonied, and said, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this that is given unto him, that even such [a]great works are done by his hands?
3 Is not this that carpenter Mary’s son, the brother of James and Joses, and of Judas and Simon? and are not his [b]sisters here with us? And they were offended in him.
4 And Jesus said unto them, A (A)Prophet is not without [c]honor, but in his own country, and among his own kindred, and in his own house.

2 When the Sabbath came,(A) he began to teach in the synagogue,(B) and many who heard him were amazed.(C)
“Where did this man get these things?” they asked. “What’s this wisdom that has been given him? What are these remarkable miracles he is performing? 3 Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph,[a] Judas and Simon?(D) Aren’t his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him.(E)
4 Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town, among his relatives and in his own home.”(F)
