Wesley's Notes for Matthew 4:14

4:12 He retired into Galilee - This journey was not immediately after his temptation. He first went from Judea into Galilee, #John 1:43; 2:1|. Then into Judea again, and celebrated the passover at Jerusalem, #John 2:13|. He baptized in Judea while John was baptizing at Enon, #John 3:22,23|. All this time John was at liberty, #John 3:24|. But the Pharisees being offended, #John 4:1|; and John put in prison, he then took this journey into Galilee. #Mark 1:14|.

4:13 Leaving Nazareth - Namely, when they had wholly rejected his word, and even attempted to kill him, #Luke 4:29|.

4:15 Galilee of the Gentiles - That part of Galilee which lay beyond Jordan was so called, because it was in a great measure inhabited by Gentiles, that is, heathens. #Isaiah 9:1,2|.

4:16 Here is a beautiful gradation, first, they walked, then they sat in darkness, and lastly, in the region of the shadow of death.
