21 Jesus and his disciples came to the town of Capernaum, and on the next Sabbath Jesus went to the synagogue and began to teach. 22 Mt 7.28,29The people who heard him were amazed at the way he taught, for he wasn’t like the teachers of the Law; instead, he taught with authority.
23 Just then a man with an evil spirit came into the synagogue and screamed, 24 "What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Are you here to destroy us? I know who you are—you are God’s holy messenger!"
25 Jesusordered the spirit, "Be quiet, and come out of the man!"
26 The evil spirit shook the man hard, gave a loud scream, and came out of him. 27 The people were all so amazed that they started saying to one another, "What is this? Is it some kind of new teaching? This man has authority to give orders to the evil spirits, and they obey him!"
28 And so the news about Jesus spread quickly everywhere in the province of Galilee.
Capernaum is the city in Galilee, by the sea, where Jesus lived after leaving Nazareth; there he taught in the synagogue, and a centurion came to him asking for help (Matthew 4:13).
Nazareth is the town in Galilee where Jesus had been brought up and where, on the Sabbath day, he went into the synagogue and stood up to read (Luke 4:16).
Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God, was born of Mary in Bethlehem, proclaimed the kingdom of God, died by crucifixion under Pontius Pilate, and was raised on the third day (Matthew 1:16).
Galilee is the land of Nazareth and Cana, from where Jesus came to be baptized by John in the Jordan and from where crowds and women followed him (Mark 1:9).
