Matthew 13:51-58
New King James Version
51 [a]Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?”
They said to Him, “Yes, [b]Lord.”
52 Then He said to them, “Therefore every [c]scribe instructed [d]concerning the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure (A)things new and old.”
Jesus Rejected at Nazareth(B)
53 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, that He departed from there. 54 (C)When He had come to His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this Man get this wisdom and these mighty works? 55 (D)Is this not the carpenter’s son? Is not His mother called Mary? And (E)His brothers (F)James, [e]Joses, Simon, and Judas? 56 And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?” 57 So they (G)were offended at Him.
But Jesus said to them, (H)“A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house.” 58 Now (I)He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
