1. Messianic prophecy fulfilled,
and some yet to be
(Luke 4:14-21)

2. 14 Then Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news of Him went out through all the surrounding region. 15 And He
taught in their
synagogues, being
glorified by all.

3. 16 So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up
16 So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, & stood
up to read. 17 And He
was handed the
book of the
prophet Isaiah.  

4. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written: (Isaiah 61:1-2)
18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He
has anointed Me to
preach the gospel
to the poor;

5. He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; 19 To
proclaim the
acceptable year
of the Lord.”

6. 20 Then He closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were fixed on Him. 21 And He began to say to them,
“Today this Scripture
is fulfilled in
your hearing.”

7. Jesus read a Messianic prophecy from the book of Isaiah and plainly states that He was the fulfillment
of that prophetic
passage.
