Context of Luke 9:4
2Then he sent them out to tell people about the kingdom of God. He told them that they should also make sick people well again. 3He said to them, ‘Do not take anything for your journey. Do not take a stick, or a bag, or food. Do not take any money. Do not take extra clothes. In each town, continue to stay at the first house that you go into. Stay there until you leave that town. 5In some towns, the people will not accept you. You should leave that place. Clean that town's dirt from your feet. Then it will be clear that they have done something wrong.’ 6Then the apostles started out. They went to visit all the villages. In every place they told people the good news about Jesus and they made sick people well.
