Matthew 4:15 In-Context
13
And leaving Nazareth he went and lived in Capernaum by the sea, in the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14
so that what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:
15
"The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles--
16
the people dwelling in darkness have seen a great light, and for those dwelling in the region and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned."
17
From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
