• But everything was in confusion in Israel: the carpenter was of the house of David. The promises of God—who never forgets them and never overlooks those who are their object—found here the sphere for their accomplishment. Here the power and the affections of God are directed, according to their divine energy. Whether Nazareth was small or great was of no importance, except to show that God does not expect from man, but man from God. (“Luke 1” by J.N. Darby)
