24. But He said, “Truly, I tell you, ‘No prophet is accepted in his own hometown.’
25. But with all truthfulness I say to you, that there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when heaven was closed for three and a half years and there came a great famine over all the land.
26. Elijah was not sent to any of them, but only to Zarephath in the land of Sidon, to a widowed woman.
27. There were many with tza'arat in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them were purified apart from Naaman the Syrian.”
28. Now all in the synagogue were filled with rage upon hearing these things.
29. Rising up, they drove Him out of the town and brought Him as far as the edge of the mountain on which their city had been built, in order to throw Him off the cliff.

31. Yeshua came down to Capernaum, a town in the Galilee. He was teaching them on Shabbat,
32. and they were astounded at His teaching because His message had authority.
33. In the synagogue was a man who had an unclean demonic spirit, and he cried out with a loud voice,
34. “Ah! What have we to do with You, Yeshua of Natzeret? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are! You are the Holy One of God!”
35. Yeshua rebuked him, saying, “Quiet! Come out of him!” And when the demon threw him down in their midst, it came out without hurting him.
