They took offense at him.

Dismissed, unappreciated, rejected? So was Jesus.

He was amazed at their lack of faith.

If you want to be transformed by the Messiah, the first step is to recognize the Messiah in your midst. This means being ready to encounter the Son of God wherever you are and whatever time it is. This means inclining not just your ear for God’s voice, but your heart for God’s presence.
(John W. Martens)
