Contrast Mark 6:4 and Luke 4:24. Why is the lack of honor by the family eliminated by Luke?

Explanation:

Mark 6:4 uses lack of honor to describe the same thing that Luke does when he writes that Jesus said no one is accepted in their home country.

They both used different writing styles and neither were first hand witnesses to Jesus' ministry so they relied on what they heard from others. It is therefore logical to assume that the reason the words are different is that these are different writers who described things differently.
