Mark 2:1–2 (ESV)

1 And when he returned to Capernaum after some days, it was reported that he was at home.

Jesus is in Capernaum, the place in the north of Israel, where he went to live after his youth in Nazareth. He had also started a journey through Galilee (Mark 1:21). He may have had a house of his own there or stayed in the house of Peter’s mother-in-law (Mark 1:29). Jesus preached the good news to many people there.
