“And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.”
Mark 1:22 — Greek Interlinear
Church Fathers on Mark 1:22

Quitting Nazareth. Now on the sabbath day, when the Scribes were gathered together, He entered into a synagogue, and taught.

[Matt. 5:27]
