Jesus is received differently in Capernaum then in his hometown. Because of the people’s openness to him, he heals the sick beginning with Simon’s mother-in-law, teaches with authority and silences demons. Naturally, they want him to stay but he tells them that he must leave and proclaim the good news to all people.
How blest are we to be the daughters and sons of a loving and merciful God!
