Mark 6:1-6

Rejection at Nazareth

^{Tools
1} He^(A) went away from there and came to His hometown,^(B) and His disciples^(C) followed Him. ^{Tools
2} When the Sabbath^(D) came, He began to teach^(E) in the synagogue,^(F) and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these things?” they said. “What is this wisdom^(G) given to Him, and how are these miracles^(H) performed by His hands? ^{Tools
3} Isn’t this the carpenter,^(I) the son of Mary,^(J) and the brother of James,^(K) Joses, Judas,^(L) and Simon? And aren’t His sisters here with us?” So they were offended^(M) by Him.

^{Tools
4} Then Jesus said to them, “A prophet^(N) is not without honor^(O) except in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his household.” ^{Tools
5} So He was not able to do any miracles^(a)^(P) there, except that He laid His hands on^(Q) a few sick^(R) people and healed^(S) them.

Commissioning the Twelve

^{Tools
6} And He was amazed^(T) at their unbelief.^(U)

Now He was going around the villages in a circuit, teaching.^(V)
