'City' in the Bible

Now in the sixth month of her pregnancy, the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city in Galilee called Nazareth,

Later on, Mary set out for a Judean city in the hill country.

Joseph, too, went up from the city of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the City of David (called Bethlehem), because he was a descendant of the household and family of David.

Today your Savior, the Lord Messiah, was born in the City of David.

They got up, forced Jesus out of the city, and led him to the edge of the hill on which their city was built, intending to throw him off.

Then Jesus went down to Capernaum, a city in Galilee, and began teaching the people on Sabbath days.

Soon afterwards, Jesus went to a city called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd were going along with him.

As he approached the entrance to the city, a man who had died was being carried out. He was his mother's only son, and she was a widow. A large crowd from the city was with her.

There was a woman who was a notorious sinner in that city. When she learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee's home, she took an alabaster jar of perfume

After this, Jesus traveled from one city and village to another, preaching and spreading the good news about God's kingdom. The Twelve were with him,

Now while a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from every city, he said in a parable:

When Jesus stepped out on the shore, a man from the city met him. This man was controlled by demons and had not worn clothes for a long time. He did not live in a house but in the tombs.

Now when those who had been taking care of the pigs saw what had happened, they ran away and reported it in the city and in the countryside.

"Go home and tell what God has done for you." So the man left and kept proclaiming throughout the whole city how much Jesus had done for him.

if people don't welcome you, when you leave that city, shake its dust off your feet as a testimony against them."

The apostles came back and told Jesus everything they had done. Then he took them away with him privately to a city called Bethsaida.

He said, "In a city there was a judge who didn't fear God or respect people.

In that city there was also a widow who kept coming to him and saying, "Grant me justice against my adversary.'

When he came closer and saw the city, he began to grieve over it:

They will level you to the ground you and those who live within your city limits. They will not leave one stone on another within your walls, because you didn't recognize the time when you were visited."

Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains, those inside the city must leave it, and those in the countryside must not go into it,

He told them, "Just after you go into the city, a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him into the house he enters

(This man had been put in prison for murder and for a revolt that had taken place in the city.)

I am sending to you what my Father promised, so stay here in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high."
