The Contempt Poured on Christ

This section describes how Jesus returned to his hometown, Nazareth, where he had grown up. Even though he had faced danger there before (Luke 4:29 ^a), he came back, showing his patience and desire to save even those who rejected him. His disciples followed him, showing their commitment to go wherever he went. Jesus taught in the synagogue on the Sabbath, but the people did not welcome him as others had. Instead, they questioned his authority and looked down on him because of his humble background and family. This shows that sometimes people reject God's message because of prejudice or familiarity, not because of any fault in the message itself.

v. 1: Jesus went to his own country, Nazareth, where he had been raised. Even though he had been in danger there before, he returned, showing his willingness to offer grace even to those who had been his enemies. His disciples followed him, showing their loyalty (Mark 6:1 ^b).
