In the Synagogue at Nazareth he read the 61. chapter of Isaiah and expounded it, Luc. 4. He expounded the commandments of God upon the mount, Math. 5. And he taught in all places: and exhorted: he reprehended, out of the word of God. And he made answer to all that asked him, aswell good as bad: and also asked them, as Matt. 22. He also catechized his disciples: and he himself was present at a catechizing, Luc. 2.
