Jesus’ time in Galilee was spent mostly in Capernaum, by the Sea of Galilee. However, Jesus did return at least once to his hometown, Nazareth. Matthew, as a side note, states that Jesus left Nazareth to live in Capernaum (Matthew 4:13). Mark further states that after a brief time in Capernaum, Jesus went to his hometown, accompanied by his disciples, where his claim to be the Messiah was rejected (Mark 6:1-5).
Luke uniquely records Jesus reading from the prophet Isaiah a passage that concerns the Messiah while in Nazareth’s small synagogue. His conclusion message was, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Jesus gave perhaps the shortest message ever. Yet, it is heard around the world to this day. With these words, Luke reveals how Jesus clearly declares that he is the long-awaited Messiah. Everyone in his small hometown would clearly understand what Jesus was proclaiming.
A time comes for everyone to publicly claim that they believe in Jesus, the Son of the Most High God, the Messiah, and the creator God. Jesus did not hold back. At the right time and place, Jesus made the truth known. We need to follow his example.
