Luke 4:24-30
Chapter 4
24
Jesus added:
“No prophet is honored in his own country.
25
Truly, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel during the days of Elijah when the sky was shut and there was no rain for three years and six months, and a severe famine spread across the land.
26
Yet, Elijah was not sent to any of them but to a widow in Zarephath, in the land of Sidon.
27
There were also many lepers in Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them were healed except Naaman the Syrian.”
28
Upon hearing these words, the entire crowd became angry.
29
They stood up and took him out of the town, heading to the edge of the hill where Nazareth is located, planning to throw him off the cliff.
30
But he moved through their midst and continued on his way.
