These twelve Jesus sent forth, and charged them, saying, Go not into (any) way of the Gentiles, and enter not into any city of the Samaritans:
and sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.
And it came to pass, as they were on the way to Jerusalem, that he was passing along the borders of Samaria and Galilee.
