And are not his sisters here with us?” And they were offended by him. 4And Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown, and among his relatives, and in his own household.” 5And he was not able to do any miracle in that place except to lay his#Literally “the”; the Greek article is used here as a possessive pronoun hands on a few sick people and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“lay”) has been translated as a finite verb heal them.#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation 6And he was astonished because of their unbelief.
