The Bible has been the most influential text in all of Western culture. It's difficult to understand medieval or early modern or much of modern literature without knowing it...

A prophet is not respected in his own country. 선지자가 그 자신의 고향에서 존경받지 못한다 (마태복음 13:54-57)

그림설명: Jesus
그림 저작권: V. Gilbert and Arlisle F. Beers

성경구절

“Aren’t all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?” And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown and in his own house is a prophet without honor.” “그 누이들은 다 우리와 함께 있지 아니하냐 그런즉 이 사람의 이 모든 것이 어디서 났느냐 하고 예수를 배척한지라 예수께서 그들에게 말씀하시되 선지자가 자기 고향과 자기 집외에서는 존경을 받지 않음이 없느니라 하시고.”

기원과 적용

예수께서 자신의 고향인 나사렛에 돌아왔을 때 사람들은 예수님의 이적과 지혜로 인해 놀랐습니다. 어떤 사람들은 그의 능력에 대해 질문하기 시작했습니다 왜냐하면 그들은 예수가 나사렛에서의 그의 유년기를 단지 목수의 아들로 지낸 걸 알았기 때문입니다. 예수님은 사람들이 일반적으로 자신을 믿지않고 의심했던 그의 고향에서 많은 기적들을 행하시지 않았습니다. 오늘날 교회에서 이 idiom이 쓰이는데 설교자들이 고향사람들과 함께 생활하고 자라고 교육받았던 그들의 모교회로 돌아가 섬기지 말라는 말입니다.
