(Jesus had said before that a prophet is not respected in his own country.)
Then he said, “The truth is, a prophet is not accepted in his own hometown.
So they had a problem accepting him. But Jesus said to them, “People everywhere give honor to a prophet, but in his own town or in his own home a prophet does not get any honor.”
Then Jesus said to them, “People everywhere give honor to a prophet, except in his own town, with his own people, or in his home.”
