Luke 4:23-25

The Voice

Jesus: ²³ You’re about to quote the old proverb to Me, “Doctor, heal yourself!” Then you’re going to ask Me to prove Myself to you by doing the same miracles I did in Capernaum. ²⁴ But face the truth: hometowns always reject their homegrown prophets.

²⁵ Think back to the prophet Elijah. There were many needy Jewish widows in his homeland, Israel, when a terrible famine persisted there for three and a half years.
