Yeshua begins his ministry

Luke 4:14–15

4:12 Yeshua begins his ministry

(Mark 1:14-15, Luke 4:14-15)

12[ref]When Yeshua heard that Yohan had been arrested, he withdrew up to Galilee. 13[ref]He moved from Nazareth across to Capernaum beside the lake in the region that had been given to the tribes of Zebulun and Naftali 14so that what had been written by the prophet Isayah would come true,

15[ref]‘Land of Zebulun and land of Naftali,

the way of the sea beyond the Yordan;

Galilee of the non-Jews.

16The people sitting in darkness

saw a powerful light,

and those sitting in a land under the shadow of death

had a light rise over them.’

17[ref]From then onwards, Yeshua started preaching and telling people to turn from their sins because the kingdom of heavens is close.


1:14 The selection of the first followers / apprentices

(Mat. 4:12-22, Luke 4:14-15)

14After Yohan had been arrested, Yeshua went back up to Galilee announcing the good news from God 15[ref]saying, “The promised time is here, and God’s kingdom is now near. Turn from your sins and believe this good news.


4:14 Yeshua begins his ministry

(Mark 1:14-15, Mat. 4:12-17)

14So then Yeshua returned to Galilee in the power of the spirit, and the news about him spread into the surrounding region. 15He started teaching in the meeting halls and everyone said how good it was.
