Luke 9:51-56

Jesus Rejected in a Samaritan Village

51 Now it happened that when the days were approaching {for him to be taken up}, he set [his] face to go to Jerusalem.

52 And he sent messengers before {him}, and they went [and] entered into a village of the Samaritans in order to prepare for him.

53 And they did not welcome him because {he was determined to go} to Jerusalem.

54 Now [when] the disciples James and John saw [it], they said, "Lord, do you want us to call fire to come down from heaven and consume them?"

55 But he turned around [and] rebuked them,

56 and they proceeded to another village.
