<p>13:26 <i>Then shall you begin to say: We did eat and drink in your presence, and you did teach in our streets</i>- Their experience of Him teaching in their streets could suggest that it was first century Israel who are in view here; for the Lord has just been recorded as teaching in their streets (:22). This is confirmed by verse 28, where the particular rejected ones will find they have been replaced by the Gentiles.</p>
