Mark 6:1-2

MARK—NOTE ON Mark 6:1 synagogue. See note on Luke 4:16 and The Synagogue and Jewish Worship. Jesus was most likely asked to give a message following the reading of Scripture (compare Luke 4:16, which was probably the same incident). Where did this man get these things? Until he began his ministry, Jesus’ divine nature was hidden. Even people in his hometown, who had known him since childhood, had no idea that he was also fully God.
