Context of Luke 10:11

9Heal the sick that are there, and tell the people, ‘God’s kingdom is near you!’ 10“But whenever you go into a city and people don’t welcome you, leave. Announce in its streets, ‘We are wiping your city’s dust from our feet in protest against you! But realize that God’s kingdom is near you!’ 12I can guarantee that judgment day will be easier for Sodom than for that city. 13“How horrible it will be for you, Chorazin! How horrible it will be for you, Bethsaida! If the miracles worked in your cities had been worked in Tyre and Sidon, they would have changed the way they thought and acted. Long ago they would have worn sackcloth and sat in ashes.
