Luke4:16

16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.

We heard before Ch. 2.29.51. that Christ was brought up at Nazareth, we read of him at Nazareth, Matth. 13.54. But I must confess I doubt, whether Matthew there, and Luke here speak of the same time; of the Nature of the Jewish Synagogues, and their order of Worship there, and the reading of the Scriptures in them we have spoken before in our Notes on Matth. 4.23.

Marginal references: Mat. 2.23.
