  Luke chapter 4 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from
• 0:04
  the Jordan and was led around by the Spirit in the wilderness for
• 0:07
  40 days, being tempted by the devil.
• 0:10
  And he ate nothing during those days.
• 0:12
  And when they had ended, he became hungry.
• 0:14
  And the devil said to him, If you are the Son of God, tell
• 0:17
  this stone to become bread. And Jesus answered him, it is
• 0:21
  written, Man shall not live on bread alone.
• 0:25
  And he led him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world.
• 0:27
  In a moment of time the devil said to him, I will give you all
• 0:31
  this domain and its glory, for it has been handed over to me,
• 0:35
  and I shall give it to whomever I wish.
• 0:37
  Therefore, if you worship before me, it shall all be yours.
• 0:41
  Jesus answered him, It is written, You shall worship the
• 0:44
  Lord your God and serve him only.
• 0:47
  And he led him to Jerusalem, had him stand on the pinnacle of the
• 0:51
  temple, and said to him, If you are the Son of God, throw
• 0:54
  yourself down from here. For it is written, he will
• 0:57
  command his angels concerning you to guard you, and on their
• 1:02
  hands they will bear you up, so that you will not strike your
• 1:05
  foot against a stone. And Jesus answered and said to
• 1:08
  him, It is said, You shall not put the Lord your God to the
• 1:11
  test. When the devil had finished
• 1:14
  every temptation, he left him until an opportune time.
• 1:17
  And Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and
• 1:20
  news about him spread through all the surrounding district.
• 1:23
  And he began teaching in their synagogues and was praised by
• 1:25
  all. And he came to Nazareth, where
• 1:28
  he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he
• 1:30
  entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and stood up to read.
• 1:33
  And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him.
• 1:36
  And he opened the book and found the place where it was written.
• 1:39
  The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he anointed me to
• 1:42
  preach the gospel to the poor, and he has sent me to proclaim
• 1:45
  release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind,
• 1:48
  to set free those who are oppressed, to proclaim the
• 1:51
  favorable year of the Lord. And he closed the book, gave it
• 1:55
  back to the attendant, and sat down.
• 1:57
  And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him.
• 2:00
  And he began to say to them, Today this scripture has been
• 2:03
  fulfilled in your hearing. And all were speaking well of
• 2:06
  him and wondering at the gracious words which were
• 2:09
  falling from his lips. And they were saying, Is this
• 2:12
  not Joseph's son? And he said to them, No doubt
• 2:16
  you will quote this proverb to me, Physician, heal yourself.
• 2:19
  Whatever we heard was done at Capernaum do here in your
• 2:22
  hometown as well. And he said, truly, I say to
• 2:25
  you, no prophet is welcome in his hometown.
• 2:29
  But I say to you, in truth, there were many widows in Israel
• 2:32
  in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years
• 2:35
  and six months, when a great famine came over all the land.
• 2:39
  And yet Elijah was sent to none of them, but only to Zarephath
• 2:43
  in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.
• 2:46
  And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the
• 2:49
  prophet, And none of them was cleansed, but only Naman the
• 2:52
  Syrian. And all the people in the
• 2:54
  synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things.
• 2:57
  And they got up and drove him out of the city, and led him to
• 3:00
  the brow of the hill on which their city had been built, in
• 3:03
  order to throw him down the Cliff.
• 3:05
  But passing through their midst, he went his way.
• 3:08
  And he came down to Capernaum, the city of Galilee, and he was
• 3:11
  teaching them on the Sabbath. And they were amazed at his
• 3:14
  teaching, for his message was with authority.
• 3:17
  In the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an
• 3:20
  unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice, Let us alone,
• 3:24
  What business do we have with each other?
• 3:26
  Jesus of Nazareth, have you come to destroy us?
• 3:30
  I know who you are, the Holy One of God.
• 3:33
  But Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be quiet and come out of him.
• 3:36
  And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst of the
• 3:39
  people, he came out of him without doing him any harm.
• 3:42
  And amazement came upon them all, and they began talking with
• 3:45
  one another, saying, What is this message?
• 3:47
  For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits,
• 3:51
  and they come out. And the report about him was
• 3:53
  spreading into every locality in the surrounding district.
• 3:57
  Then he got up and left the synagogue and entered Simon's
• 4:00
  home. Now Simon's mother-in-law was
• 4:03
  suffering from a high fever, and they asked him to help her.
• 4:06
  And standing over her He rebuked the fever and it left her, and
• 4:10
  she immediately got up and waited on them.
• 4:13
  While the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick
• 4:16
  with various diseases, brought them to Him, and laying His
• 4:19
  hands on each one of them, He was healing them.
• 4:21
  Demons also were coming out of many shouting, You are the Son
• 4:24
  of God. But rebuking them He would not
• 4:26
  allow them to speak, because they knew Him to be the Christ.
• 4:30
  When day came, Jesus left and went to a secluded place, and
• 4:34
  the crowds were searching for Him and came to Him and tried to
• 4:36
  keep Him from going away from them.
• 4:38
  But he said to them, I must preach the Kingdom of God to the
• 4:42
  other cities also, for I was sent for this purpose.
• 4:45
  So he kept on preaching in the synagogues of Judea.
