Context
Rejection in Samaria
9:51 Now when the days drew near for him to be taken up , Jesus set out resolutely to go to Jerusalem .
9:52 He sent messengers on ahead of him . As they went along , they entered a Samaritan village to make things ready in advance for him ,
9:53 but the villagers refused to welcome him , because he was determined to go to Jerusalem .
9:54 Now when his disciples James and John saw this, they said , “Lord , do you want us to call fire to come down from heaven and consume them ?”
9:55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them ,
9:56 and they went on to another village .

NET Notes: Luk 9:53 Jerusalem is to be the place of rejection, as Luke 9:44 suggested. Jesus had resolved to meet his fate in Jerusalem, so the rejection was no surprise.
