And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” -Luke 4:21 NASB
Jesus made this statement in a worship assembly in Nazareth, His hometown. He had just finished reading a passage from Isaiah about His own ministry. This is astounding because Isaiah was written 750 years before the time of Christ. Even more astounding — the Jews, in whose hearing that passage was fulfilled that very day, did not believe. Will you?
