What is the wisdom given to him? How are such mighty works done by his hands? 3 ⁿIs not this the carpenter,¹ the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?” And they ^otook offense at him. 4 And Jesus said to them, ^p“A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household.”
