Jesus' choice to teach on the Sabbath underscores His respect for Jewish customs while also foreshadowing His role as the fulfillment of the Law.

'What is this wisdom that has been given to Him,' and how do such miracles happen through His hands? Such mighty works.--As the Evangelist notes in Mark 6:5 that no mighty work had been done in Nazareth, these must refer to what had been reported there.
