JESUS REJECTED AT NAZARETH 

 

Jeff Watkins, Jesus Rejected at Nazareth, oil painting: watercolorsbywatkins.com

 'Jesus Rejected in Nazareth'  by Jeff Watkins

This painting shows the tumult of the event, as Jesus is hustled and jostled out of the town of Nazareth.

The artist has captured the energy of the moment: Jesus is trying to leave, but is hemmed in and urged forward by the vigorous, angry men who abuse him. Are these the people he grew up with?

Another artist who had tackled this difficult event is Greg Olson, in his picture of Jesus reading the Scriptures in the synagogue at Nazareth:
