Context of Luke 10:11

9Make the sick people well who are there. Give this message to all the people there: “The kingdom of God has now come near to you.” 10Sometimes when you go into a town, the people will not accept you. You should then go into the streets of that town and you should say to the people, “There is dirt from your town on our feet. We will clean it off to show that you have not accepted us. God is not happy with you. But listen! You should know that the kingdom of God has come very near.” 12One day God will punish the people from that town. Yes, he will punish them more than the people who lived in Sodom long ago.’ 13Jesus then said, ‘You people in Chorazin, things will be bad for you! And things will be bad for you, people in Bethsaida. I have done great and powerful things in your cities. If I had done such great things in Tyre and in Sidon, the people there would have changed how they lived. They would have shown that they were sorry for their sins. They would have put on rough clothes. They would also have put ashes on their heads.
