Matthew 13:55-57

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵⁵ We know who he is. He is the son of the carpenter here.^[a] Mary is his mother. We also know his brothers, James, Joseph, Simon and Judas. ⁵⁶ All his sisters also live here in the town among us. So then, where did he learn all these things?’ ⁵⁷ So the people there did not accept Jesus.

Jesus said to them, ‘If a man is a prophet from God, people everywhere will say good things about him. But the people in his own town will not accept him. Even the people of his own house will not say good things about him.’
