Standing up to read in the synagogue like #yeshua did in Luke 4:16-17 probably wasn't something anybody could do whenever they felt like it. There is generally a strict order to these things. That the synagogue rulers cooperated with him, shows that he had some recognition as a teacher or dignitary of some kind. In v18, he quoted from Isaiah 61:7, 42:7, and 49:8. He probably read more than what is reported, but these were the relevant excerpts. His commentary is really what blew the listeners away. I suspect he said more than is recorded in v21. As with the preceding reading from Isaiah, his commentary is likely also summarized by Luke.
here are some scriptures on the light happy hanukkah ladies
Matt 4:16,The people sitting in darkness have seen a great light, and those sitting in the region and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned". John 9:5,While I am in the world, I am the light of the world". Mic 7:8, Do not rejoice over me, O my enemy. Though I have fallen-I will arise.Though I sit in darkness,ADONAI is my light. Psa 18:29,For you light up my lamp.ADONAI my Yah shines in my darkness.Psa 119:105, Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light to my path.Matt 5:16,In the same way,let your light shine before men so they may see your good works and glorify your Abba in heaven". John 1:5,The light shines in the darkness,and the darkness has not overpowered it.Yshuah spoke to them again,saying, "I am the light of the world.The one who follows Me will no longer walk in darkness,but will have the light of life".John 1:6-9 There came a man sent from Yah whose name was John.He came as a witness to testify about the light,so that through him everyone might believe. He was not the light,but he came to bear witness concerning the light. The true light,coming into the world,gives light to every man, Psa 27:1,ADONAI is my light and my salvation:whom should I fear?ADONAI is the stronghold of my life of my life:whom should I dread? Eph 5:14, For everything made visible is light. This is why it says, " Wake up, O sleeper! Rise from the dead, and Messiah will shine on you".The unfolding of your worlds gives light, giving understanding to the simple.

It was Yeshua's custom to go to the synagogue every #sabbath, the seventh day of the week, which we commonly call Saturday. Part of the command to keep Sabbath is to keep it as a holy convocation, not simply a day of rest. (See #leviticus 23:3.) In attending synagogue every Sabbath, he was keeping the commandment, and on the same day as all other Jews. You don't have to go to synagogue or to church, but you do need to gather with fellow believers in some fashion.

We are familiar with the phrase "made in the image of God", but less aware that Satan has always been on a mission to make an image of himself. The ultimate idolatry. Satan can't create. He can only take what YHVH has already made and pollute and twist and copy it. Be aware of what is happening in real time in our lives.
