Matt 13:53 · Douay-Rheims
“And it came to pass: when Jesus had finished these parables, he passed from thence.”
On this verse:
“Further, He makes this answer, that a Prophet is without honour in his own country, because it was in Judæa that He was to be condemned to the sentence of the cross; and forasmuch as the power of God is for the faithful alone, He here abstained from works of divine power because of their unbelief; whence it follows, And he did not there many mighty works because of their unbelief.”
