JKSITS BEGINS HIS MINISTRY

John the Baptist was outspoken in his denunciation of Herod Antipas, son of Herod the Great and tetrarch of Galilee and Peraea. Herod has married Herodias, the wife of his own brother, putting away his own legal wife to do this. John the Baptist denounced Herod Antipas in no uncertain terms and because of his speeches was arrested and thrown into prison. Then Jesus left Judaea for Galilee at the end of his first year of preaching.

Jesus toured through Galilee preaching his message and then returned to his home in Nazareth. He preached in the synagogue and all wondered at his eloquence. His fellow townsmen were eager to witness a miracle but he refused, since he did not work miracles for display. Angered they seized him and would have thrown him from a cliff, but his lofty mien repulsed them. So saddened at his treatment he left Nazareth behind him.

Northeast of Nazareth on the shores of Galilee there stood the fishing village of Capernaum. It was here that Jesus went and this remained his headquarters during the remainder of his ministry. As Jesus walked along the shore, he beheld Simon, called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting their nets. "Come after me,” Jesus commanded them. “And I will make you fishers of men.” So the two left their nets and followed him.

Reports of his work were carried into Syria and great multitudes came from the distance to hear him and to be healed of their illnesses.
