2. Mark 6:1-2
He went away from there and came to his
hometown, and his disciples followed him.
And on the Sabbath he began to teach in
the synagogue, and many who heard him
were astonished, saying, “Where did this
man get these things? What is the wisdom
given to him? How are such mighty works
done by his hands?

3. Mark 6:3-4
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary
and brother of James and Joses and Judas
and Simon? And are not his sisters here
with us? And they took offense at him.
And Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not
without honor, except in his hometown and
among his relatives and in his own
household.”

4. Mark 6:5-6
And he could do no mighty work there,
except that he laid his hands on a few sick
people and healed them. And he marveled
because of their unbelief. And he went
about among the villages teaching.
