The Brow of the Hill near Nazareth

Saint Luke - Chapter 4


The brow of the Hill near Nazareth. J-J Tissot.
[25] In veritate dico vobis, multae viduae erant in diebus Eliae in Israel, quando clausum est caelum annis tribus et mensibus sex, cum facta esset fames magna in omni terra :
In truth I say to you, there were many widows in the days of Elias in Israel, when heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there was a great famine throughout all the earth.

[26] et ad nullam illarum missus est Elias, nisi in Sarepta Sidoniae, ad mulierem viduam.
And to none of them was Elias sent, but to Sarepta of Sidon, to a widow woman.

[27] Et multi leprosi erant in Israel sub Elisaeo propheta : et nemo eorum mundatus est nisi Naaman Syrus.
And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet: and none of them was cleansed but Naaman the Syrian.

[28] Et repleti sunt omnes in synagoga ira, haec audientes.
And all they in the synagogue, hearing these things, were filled with anger.

[29] Et surrexerunt, et ejecerunt illum extra civitatem : et duxerunt illum usque ad supercilium montis, super quem civitas illorum erat aedificata, ut praecipitarent eum.
And they rose up and thrust him out of the city; and they brought him to the brow of the hill, whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.

[30] Ipse autem transiens per medium illorum, ibat.
But he passing through the midst of them, went his way.


Totus tuus ego sum 
Et omnia mea tua sunt;
Tecum semper tutus sum:
Ad Jesum per Mariam
