"HE went to HIS hometown and taught the people in their synagogue. They were amazed and said, 'Where did HE get this wisdom and these special powers? Isn't HE the carpenter's son? Isn't Mary HIS mother and aren't James, Joseph, Simon and Judas HIS brothers? Aren't all HIS sisters living here? Where did HE get all these things?' And so they took offense at HIM.
JESUS said to them, 'The only place where prophets are not welcome is his hometown and in his own family.' And HE did not perform many miracles there because of their lack of faith." - Matthew 13:54-58
(Faith is the assurance of what we hope for, being certain of what we cannot see [Hebrews 11:1].)
