 It sounds like you’re referring to a moment in the life of Jesus Christ described in the Gospel of Luke.

The story: Jesus almost thrown off a hill

After beginning his ministry, Jesus returned to his hometown of Nazareth. He went into the synagogue and read from the prophet Isaiah, saying that the scripture was being fulfilled.

At first the people were impressed. But when Jesus suggested that God’s message and miracles were not only for Jews but also for outsiders (Gentiles), many people in the synagogue became furious.

The passage says they:

• Drove him out of the town
• Took him to the edge of a hill on which Nazareth was built
• Intended to throw him off the cliff

But according to the account, Jesus passed through the crowd and went on his way, and they did not throw him.

📖 Reference: Luke 4:16–30 in the New Testament.

Location traditionally associated with the event

Many Christians associate this story with the hill now called:

• Mount Precipice near Nazareth

This site overlooks a steep cliff and is traditionally believed to be where the crowd tried to throw Jesus down.

If you want, I can also explain:

• why the crowd became so angry at Jesus
• how this story fits into the bigger story of his life
• or other similar moments where crowds tried to harm him.
