Luke 4:14–20. We have returned to Galilee, in the power of the Spirit, and a report about Jesus goes out through all the surrounding country. He teaches in their synagogues, and is glorified by all. Records of Jesus teaching are interspersed with records of miraculous activity, but the emphasis seems to be upon the teaching, and it is for this that Jesus was primarily known.Then we find ourselves at Nazareth which was, for all intents and purposes, an insignificant town – but this was where Jesus lived most of his life, and it was here that he would have gone to the synagogue each Sabbath day.In the synagogue we hear the usual prayers before Jesus stood up to read from the scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He read what was essentially a statement of his mission, as foretold by the prophets, but was now being fulfilled with his coming as Messiah – the anointed One of God. Hosted on Acast.
