and He answered them, and said, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

Then saith Jesus unto them, Did ye understand all these? they say unto Him, Yes, Lord: and He said unto them,

and came into his own country, and taught them in their synagogues; so that they were amazed and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom and these powers?
