of the Spirit, and news about him
spread through the whole countryside.
He taught in their synagogues, and
everyone praised him.
5. He went to Nazareth, where he had
been brought up, and on the Sabbath
day he went into the synagogue, as was
his custom. And he stood up to read.
The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was
handed to him. Unrolling it, he found
the place where it is written:
6. The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me
to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to release the oppressed,
to proclaim the year
of the Lord's favor.
7. Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it
back to the attendant and sat down.
The eyes of everyone in the synagogue
were fastened on him, and he began by
saying to them,
Today this scripture is fulďŹlled
in your hearing.
