Matthew 4:12-16

12When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, he went back to Galilee.

13He left Nazareth and made his home in Capernaum on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. This was in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali.

14So what the prophet Isaiah had said came true:

15“Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, on the way to the sea, across the Jordan River, Galilee, where foreigners live!

16The people who lived in darkness have seen a bright light. A light has risen for those who live in a land overshadowed by death.”
