In Luke 4, Jesus announces the inauguration of his ministry by quoting Isaiah 61. The words of the prophet rang off the walls of the synagogue in Nazareth. Jesus then says, these words are fulfilled. Initially it seems as though Jesus is claiming to be God, but this is not what upsets the people in Nazareth. At some level he is claiming to speak for God – he is claiming to be the one who is bringing the good news, the gospel, to the poor and the captives.
