| Mrk 6:1 | Kemudian Yesus berangkat dari situ dan tiba di tempat asal-Nya, sedang murid-murid-Nya mengikuti Dia. |
| Mrk 6:2 | Pada hari Sabat Ia mulai mengajar di rumah ibadat dan jemaat yang besar takjub ketika mendengar Dia dan mereka berkata: "Dari mana diperoleh-Nya semuanya itu? Hikmat apa pulakah yang diberikan kepada-Nya? Dan mujizat-mujizat yang demikian bagaimanakah dapat diadakan oleh tangan-Nya? |
| Mrk 6:3 | Bukankah Ia ini tukang kayu, anak Maria, saudara Yakobus, Yoses, Yudas dan Simon? Dan bukankah saudara-saudara-Nya yang perempuan ada bersama kita?" Lalu mereka kecewa dan menolak Dia. |
| Mrk 6:4 | Maka Yesus berkata kepada mereka: "Seorang nabi dihormati di mana-mana kecuali di tempat asalnya sendiri, di antara kaum keluarganya dan di rumahnya." |
| Mrk 6:5 | Ia tidak dapat mengadakan satu mujizatpun di sana, kecuali menyembuhkan beberapa orang sakit dengan meletakkan tangan-Nya atas mereka. |
| Mrk 6:6 | Ia merasa heran atas ketidakpercayaan mereka. (6-6b) Lalu Yesus berjalan keliling dari desa ke desa sambil mengajar. |
RENUNGAN
Tuhan Yesus berada di Nazareth, dimana orang - orang dan saudara Nya mengenal dia sebagai anak dari tukang kayu, sehingga mereka mempertanyakan Yesus dan tidak percaya kepada Nya oleh sebab itu Tuhan tidak mengadakan satu mukjizat pun di sana.
Tuhan Yesus mengatakan bahwa nabi - nabi tidak dihormati di tempat asal Nya sendiri karena mereka merasa mengenal Dia. Padahal dia adalah Anak Tuhan yang memberitakan injil demi kebaikan semua umat manusia, seharusnya mereka merasa beruntung karena bisa mengenal dan mendengarkan sabda Tuhan. Tentang rahasia Kerajaan Surga dan demi pengampunan dosa - dosa manusia Tuhan Yesus Kristus rela mati di kayu salib.
Untuk itulah kita harus mempercayai bahwa Kristus adalah Putra Allah Yang Tunggal, ia turun ke dunia bukan untuk keluarga nya, tetangga nya melainkan untuk semua umat manusia yang mau mendengarkan dan menerima Dia. Sebab Tuhan itu Maha Pengasih dan Penyayang.
DOA
Tuhan Allah Yang Mahakuasa
Pencipta langit dan Bumi
Engkaulah Allah Yang Hidup
Berkatilah aku, aku percaya akan mukjizat Mu Tuhan
Terjadilah di dalam hidup ku
Aku juga berdoa akan perdamaian dunia
dan Kasih Cinta Mu Semoga membuat dunia menjadi hangat dengan kasih Mu
Amen
ENGLISH
Mark 6:1-6 (English Standard Version):
1 He went away from there and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him.
2 And on the Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get these things? What is the wisdom given to him? How are such mighty works done by his hands?
3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?" And they took offense at him.
4 And Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household."
5 And he could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them.
6 And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went about among the villages teaching.
REFLECTION
Lord Jesus was in Nazareth, where people and His brothers knew Him as the son of a carpenter. They questioned and doubted Him, so Jesus did not perform any miracles there.
Jesus said that prophets are not honored in their hometown because people feel they know them too well. Despite being the Son of God proclaiming the Gospel for the good of all humanity, they failed to recognize Him. Jesus, for the sake of the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven and the forgiveness of human sins, willingly died on the cross.
Therefore, we must believe that Christ is the Only Begotten Son of God. He came into the world not just for His family or neighbors but for all humanity willing to listen and accept Him. For God is Merciful and Compassionate.
PRAYER
Almighty God,
Creator of heaven and earth,
You are the Living God.
Bless me, Lord, I believe in Your miracles.
Let them happen in my life.
I also pray for world peace,
and may Your Love and Compassion warm the world.
Amen.
