The Bible itself teaches that \u201cJesus\u201d would \u201cbe called a Nazarene\u201d (Matthew 2:1,23).\u00a0 Seventeen times the Bible (NKJV) uses the expression \u201cJesus of Nazareth,\u201d probably because Jesus used to live there (Matthew 2:23).\u00a0 The New Testament uses the expression Nazareth, Nazarene, or Nazarenes thirty-one times.<\/p>\n

In the Book of Acts, the Apostle Paul was considered to be a leader of the Nazarenes\u00a0by his enemies (Acts 24:2,5).<\/p>\n
