VERS. 13. And leaving Nazareth, [Vers. 13] hee came and dwelt in Capernaum, &c.

Why doth Christ leave Nazareth? [Quest.] [Answ. 1]

First, because it was lesse safe, say some: But this was not the reason of it, for first, when Io∣seph was afraid to goe into Iudea, he turned aside into Nazareth, Matth. 2.23. which was in Ga∣lilee, verse 22. yea secondly, Capernaum was the more famous place, and therefore the more dangerous. [Answ. 2]

Secondly, Christ left Nazareth, because hee was there unworthily handled: for first, his word was there contemned and despised: hence it is said, that he did not many mighty workes there, because of their unbeleefed 1.1. Secondly, he had vi∣olence there offered unto him, for they rose up against him, and thrust him out of the city, and led him out unto the edge of of the hill, that they might cast him downe headlonge 1.2.
