Read in context

Matthew 4:13–17 · Berean Standard Bible

13 Leaving Nazareth, He went and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,

14 to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:

15 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles—

16 the people living in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned.”

17 From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.”
