Transcription: Then, in a dramatic scene early in his ministry, Jesus quoted from one of Isaiah's servant passages. After reading aloud in the synagogue, Jesus rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him, and he began by saying to them, Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing. At last, a link snapped into place for some, but not all, of Jesus' listeners, the Messiah had come at last, not as a conquering general, but as a carpenter's son from Nazareth.
