^24 (A)And he also stripped off his clothes and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down ^(B)naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, ^(C)“Is Saul also among the prophets?”

¹⁴ Then Amos answered, and said to Amaziah:

^54 (A)When He had come to His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this Man get this wisdom and these mighty works? ^55 (B)Is this not the carpenter’s son? Is not His mother called Mary? And ^(C)His brothers ^(D)James, ^[a]Joses, Simon, and Judas? ⁵⁶ And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this Man get all these things?” ⁵⁷ So they ^(E)were offended at Him.

But Jesus said to them, ^(F)“A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house.”

^15 (A)And the Jews marveled, saying, “How does this Man know letters, having never studied?”

The Name of Jesus Forbidden

¹³ Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, ^(A)and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus.
