So he settled his family in the village of Nazareth, fulfilling the prophecy that he would be known as the “Branch.”
As he cast his seeds, some fell along the beaten path and the birds came and ate them.
Jesus said to them, “A prophet is treated with honor everywhere except in his own hometown, among his relatives, and in his own house.”
