power . Greek. dunamis. App-172 .

there went out a fame, &c. In Luke (as in the other Gospels) only those events are selected which tend to illustrate the special presentation of the Lord and His ministry. Compare the commencing events of each: Matthew 4:13 .Mark 1:14 .Mark 4:14-30 , and John 1:19-43 . For this fourfold ministry, see App-119 . Thus this first period commences and its subject, as stated more precisely in verses: Luke 4:43 , Luke 4:44 .

fame = report. Greek. pheme. Not the same word as in Luke 4:37 .

of = concerning. Greek. peri. App-104 .

through . Greek. kata. App-104 .
