Jesus begins to preach in Galilee
Matt 4:12–17 · Mark 1:14–15 · Luke 4:14–15
Matt 4:12–1712When Jesus heard that John had been imprisoned, He withdrew to Galilee.
13Leaving Nazareth, He went and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:
15“Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles—
16the people living in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned.”
17From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.”
Mark 1:14–1514After the arrest of John, Jesus went into Galilee and proclaimed the gospel of God.
15“The time is fulfilled,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe in the gospel!”
Luke 4:14–1514Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news about Him spread throughout the surrounding region.
15He taught in their synagogues and was glorified by everyone.
