And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written,
Luke 4:17
On the surface, Isaiah 42 and 61 are literally about releasing prisoners and healing the blind, but are also about releasing spiritual prisoners and healing the spiritually blind. See Luke 4:16-30. "Physician, heal yourself" v23 should be understood to mean "Why are you out healing people all over the land instead of right here in your hometown?" But where there is no fear of God, there can be no healing. Until we learn to fear God, we will never see the full power of God.

Standing up to read in the synagogue like #yeshua did in Luke 4:16-17 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.
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.

My own brother just called me a 'false prophet' for sending him a video of 'The Watchers' and this episode was about an arsonist who burned a child all over his body and left him barely alive in a park for some views. Someone broke into his house and stole his hard drive from his computer and the documents they found...wow, Corbin was saved by the police thanks to a group called, 'Anonymous'. Anonymous stand with the legal way, unless you fight against the west elsewhere. Thewa Chers is a black hat hacker who hunts violent criminals who the system lets slip between the cracks. The darkness is deeper in the crack then it is looking into the crack. Under Yahuah's Torah, there is no crack to escape into. Murderers and the like had no place to run to. Thankfully the US constitution could justify this under the 2A. Using lethal force to execute judgement on an attacker who isn't stopping, even if the attack is happening to someone else. It doesn't matter if the majority of corrupt judges don't side with you, they already don't side with you so long as you cry for Yahuah and His Ways. Note to self, if you're gonna prey on children, make sure your house runs off old school technology, because this AI stuff is scary when you lose all control.
On this date in history, 12/12/1985: Arrow Air Flight 1285, carrying U.S. Army personnel home from Egypt, crashes shortly after takeoff from Gander, Newfoundland, Canada, killing all 248 passengers and 8 crew members. The cause is disputed by Canadian Aviation Safety Board investigators. Some believe it was caused by ice on the wings, others that it was caused by an explosion. #otd #tdih
I have written before, the Bible in the original language and context is agyonizily specific. This concept prevents deception when we are able to understand and explain the real meaning of what is written. A very good example is found in the word world. Today the English word is used to describe the earth we live on but in the original Hebrew it describes the people and not the earth. Psalm 9:8, “He judge the world with righteousness; He will administer judgement for the people in uprightness.”
