Luke 4:24-28
English Standard Version
24 And he said, “Truly, I say to you, (A)no prophet is acceptable in his hometown. 25 But in truth, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when (B)the heavens were shut up three years and six months, and a great famine came over all the land, 26 and Elijah was sent to none of them (C)but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. 27 And (D)there were many lepers[a] in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cleansed, (E)but only Naaman the Syrian.” 28 When they heard these things, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath.
