Matthew 13:53–57 · Berean Standard Bible

53 When Jesus had finished these parables, He withdrew from that place.

54 Coming to His hometown, He taught the people in their synagogue, and they were astonished. “Where did this man get such wisdom and miraculous powers?” they asked.

55 “Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t His mother’s name Mary, and aren’t His brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?

56 Aren’t all His sisters with us as well? Where then did this man get all these things?”

57 And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”
