Matthew 13:57
Context13:57 And so they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own house.”
Mark 6:4
Context6:4 Then 1 Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown, and among his relatives, and in his own house.”
Luke 4:24
Context4:24 And he added, 2 “I tell you the truth, 3 no prophet is acceptable 4 in his hometown.
[6:4] 1 tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
[4:24] 2 tn Grk “said,” but since this is a continuation of previous remarks, “added” is used here.
[4:24] 3 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
[4:24] 4 sn Jesus argues that he will get no respect in his own hometown. There is a wordplay here on the word acceptable (δεκτός, dektos), which also occurs in v. 19: Jesus has declared the “acceptable” year of the Lord (here translated year of the Lord’s favor), but he is not “accepted” by the people of his own hometown.
