Why Jesus Being 'The Nazarene' Is A BIG Deal 💪

Discover the rich theological and prophetic significance behind Jesus being called "The Nazarene" in this in-depth video. More than just a title linked to His humble beginnings in Nazareth, the term "Nazarene" holds powerful connections to Old Testament prophecies, messianic themes, and the broader purpose of Christ's mission. We explore the connections to Isaiah's prophecy of the Branch (Isaiah 11:1), the humble land of Galilee prophesied in Isaiah 9:1-2, and the Nazirite vow from Numbers 6. Also, learn about the early Church, referred to as the "sect of the Nazoreans," and how modern denominations, like the Church of the Nazarene, continue to carry this legacy of holiness and dedication to God.

The amount of hate you got in the comments for this video is so astounding to the point where I literally watched the video all over again to do a little fact check on what you said.

Okay people, first off, let's start with some simple definitions/meanings:
1. The word Nazarene means, "a native or INHABITANT of Nazareth".
2. The word hometown means, "the town of one's birth or EARLY LIFE or of one's PRESENT FIXED RESIDENCE".

Did the Bible say that Jesus was a Nazarene?
Simple answer: Yes.
Acts 22:8 is one of many examples: "So I answered, ‘Who are You, Lord?’ And He said to me, ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.’"
Here Jesus is associating Himself with Nazareth, one of the reasons is because that's where He GREW UP which would fit the definition of Him being a Nazarene.

Now, several points that I want to make:
1. AT NO POINT IN THE VIDEO did he say that Jesus was BORN in Nazareth (He was born in Bethlehem- Matthew 2:1).

2. AT NO POINT IN THE VIDEO did he say that Jesus was a NAZARITE (like Samson- grown hair and abstained from both wine and touching dead things). He even went further to say that Jesus did NOT take the Nazarite vow in the traditional sense (like Samson and Samuel) at 4:34, meaning He was NOT a Nazarite.
He was just comparing the lifestyle of persons who took the Nazarite vow to Jesus- how they both lived fully consecrated and dedicated lives to God (in case someone comes at this, of course we are sinners and Jesus is perfect so this is in no way saying that Nazarites even compare to Jesus). At 4:06, he said SOME scholars connect Nazarene to Nazarite vow- some. He isn't saying they are correct. He's just mentioning that's what some people say.

3. The muscular man in the video is SAMSON, not JESUS. And even if it was Jesus, he was a CARPENTER and carpenters are USUALLY strong masculine men.
If anyone is gonna make the statement that "Samson was not muscular because they wouldn't ask where he got his strength from, " remember that he was doing much much more than any amount of physical muscle could ever accomplish like tearing a lion in 2 with his bare hands. He had to have additional strength from somewhere else and the people recognized this, hence asking for the source of his strength.

4. The physical appearance of Jesus. First and foremost, Jesus is a JEW (and wayyy more than that- He is God in the flesh according to John 1) with not much physical description except in Revelation after He was glorified. Whether He had short hair (which would honestly be more probable in my opinion) or long hair (as seen more often), whether He was jacked due to being a carpenter or slim and thin, THE BIBLE IS NOT EXPLICITLY CLEAR ON THESE THINGS. The drawings/pictures/videos are mere REPRESENTATIONS of Him. This doesn't mean we should idolize these images as if that's how Jesus actually looks unless that is how He actually revealed Himself to be.
But at the same time, saying that Jesus didn't have these physical features would not necessarily be true unless you saw Him for yourself.

So you persons in the comments who are literally bashing this guy for things HE DID NOT SAY without actually using your ears and then say he is all wrong, and what he's saying is nonsense and that he is deaf to truth and all manner of foolishness- I dare you to ACTUALLY watch the video and THEN point out what's wrong. This time, take your time and pay attention to what is being said. You might learn something.

And finally to you my brother, awesome and informative video! Keep up the good work and don't let these ignorant persons who don't actually use their ears, reject understanding and then after correcting them, they refuse to BE HUMBLE and accept their wrong- don't let them get to you. What you said was biblically accurate. That's all that matters. If anyone comes against you after making statements that align with scripture, they are either trolls, persons who just weren't paying attention to the video, or literally persons sent by the devil himself to discourage you. Whatever the case may be, they weren't sent by God to correct you. Shalom brother. New sub.

i Boldly declare that Jesus was God manifested in the Flesh, and is presently sitted at the Right hand of the Father, waiting for the exact Hour and Day to return and take vengence upon the Mockers and Satans Remnant.

[laverawoods]

Great teaching--thank you. I'm currently studying/teaching Judges; Samson is the next deliverer/judge we study. I have given much thought to how he foretold of Jesus, our Savior, so this was very timely for me.

Music is a bit distracting and loud; personally I would have enjoyed more without background music, but, again, very good. God bless.

[kipwhite]

This premise is incorrect. The term Nazarite refers to the vow, Nazarene refers only to geographic location of residence.

[Chief]

Why does the music need to be so loud, really distracts from the message but thank you for the teaching.

[TaylorBickle]

So why are so many people on here confusing the word Nazarene with Nazarite? Are you not understanding the differences and the relation? Seems pretty clear to me.

[thomasshoff]

Ironically, Jesus was rejected for his ministry by Nazarenes. He was forced to leave or be stoned.

[Bright_Sol]

"Nazarene" was a temporary lifestyle that some young males adopted. They often did not shave, cut hair. There were three lifelong Nazarene's in the bible. Samuel, John the Baptist and Samson.

[ZaranTurvey]

Amen father lovely above and his lovely family ❤❤❤❤❤

[viking]

Ephesians 4:5, "One Lord, one faith, one baptism" the Late 19th century is Way to Late to be included in that verse,

[P.H.]

I like John’s Gospel
Jesus turned water into Wine 🍷
He touched the dead, the unclean, the lepers
Being God The Son He is Holy Righteous without sin
He is not confined by any thing!
But fully Alive to The Father!
Hallelujah.

Now John the Baptist he was A Nazarite vow keeper!

Jesus was "called a Nazarene" because of being raised in Nazareth from about 2 years till he reached adulthood at "about 30 years old".(Matt 2:23; Luke 3:23; Note: Nazareth possibly means "Sprout-Town", whereby at Isaiah 11:1, it says of Jesus that "a sprout (Hebrew netser, H5342, meaning "sprout, shoot, figuratively, a descendant") from his roots (Jesse, David's father) will bear fruit".)

At Zechariah 6:12, it says: "This is what Jehovah (God's name, see Ex 6:3, KJV) of armies says: “Here is the man (Jesus Christ) whose name is Sprout (Hebrew tsemach, H6780, meaning "a sprout, growth", from H6679, tsamach, meaning "to sprout"). He will sprout (Hebrew tsamach) from his own place, and he will build the temple of Jehovah."(see Eph 2:20, 21)

But Jesus was NOT a Nazirite (meaning "One Singled Out; Dedicated One; Separated One"), for a Nazirite could not drink wine or any alcoholic beverages, nor eat anything made from grapes, even the skin of the grapes, as well not cutting his hair (see 1 Cor 11:14), and could not touch a dead body, as Numbers 6:1-12 states.

On the other hand, Jesus frequently drank wine, being guests for meals in people's homes, as at Mark 2:15 in the home of his future apostle Matthew, and whereby at Matthew 11:18, 19, Jesus said:

"John came neither eating nor drinking, but people say, ‘He has a demon.’ The Son of man did come eating and drinking, but people say, ‘Look ! A man who is a glutton and is given to drinking wine, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ All the same, wisdom is proved righteous by its works.”

And at Luke 22, when instituting the Lord's Evening meal, that consisted of unleaven bread and wine (Ex 12:8), Jesus told his eleven faithful apostles: "Take this (cup of wine) and pass it from one to the other among yourselves, for I tell you, "

"from now on, I will not drink again from the product of the vine until the Kingdom of God comes (meaning Jesus would rejoice with the arrival of God's Kingdom at Armageddon, Rev 16:14, 16; Matt 16:27, knowing that Jehovah's justice of destruction would be served on wicked mankind, see Ps 104:15; Luke 19:27)."(Luke 22:17, 18; compare Luke 10:18, 21)

[dawisekrakken]

Imagine a group of people calling themselves God’s chosen people. Now that’s some crazy thing to say.

[thomasjohnston]

Whos the guy representing on the title screen?

[The_illuminated_word]

What Ai program or programs do you use??

[humbleseeker]

I have never heard of this denomination. The description given does pique my interest though. Do you/they follow the commandments of YHVH?

[Asgaardiangatekeeper]

They probably wouldnt have even tried to crucify Jesus, if he looked like that when he threw hands at the temple.

[Andy-ux]

Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for i am meek and lowly in heart, and you shall find rest unto your souls.... Matthew 11: 29....
