Strong's Lexicon
Nazarénos: Nazarene

Original Word: Ναζαρηνός
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: Nazarénos
Pronunciation: nah-zar-ay-NOS
Phonetic Spelling: (nad-zar-ay-nos')
Definition: Nazarene
Meaning: of Nazareth, a Nazarene.

Word Origin: Derived from Ναζαρέθ (Nazareth), a town in Galilee.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "Nazarénos," the concept is related to the Hebrew word נָצְרַת (Natsrath), referring to the town of Nazareth.

Usage: The term "Nazarénos" is used to describe someone from Nazareth. In the New Testament, it is primarily used to refer to Jesus Christ, emphasizing His earthly origin and fulfilling the prophecy that He would be called a Nazarene. This term highlights Jesus' humble beginnings and His identification with a town that was often looked down upon in Judean society.

Cultural and Historical Background: Nazareth was a small and relatively insignificant town in the region of Galilee during the time of Jesus. It was not mentioned in the Old Testament, which contributed to its lowly reputation. The term "Nazarene" was sometimes used derogatorily, reflecting the skepticism and prejudice of some who questioned how anything good could come from Nazareth (John 1:46). Despite this, Jesus' association with Nazareth fulfilled prophetic expectations and underscored His role as the humble Messiah.
