"A prophet is despised only in his country" 

A Reading From The Holy Gospel According To Mark (6, 1-6) 

At that time Jesus went to his place of origin, and his disciples followed him. On the Sabbath, he began to teach in the synagogue. Many listeners, struck with astonishment, said: “Where does it come from? What is this wisdom given to him, and these great miracles that are performed by his hands? Is he not the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James, José, Jude and Simon? Are not his sisters here with us? And they were deeply shocked about him. Jesus said to them: “A prophet is despised only in his country, his kinship and his house. And there he could not perform any miracles; he only heals a few sick people by laying his hands on them. And he was amazed at their lack of faith. So Jesus would go through the surrounding villages teaching.
