THEME: *JESUS CHRIST*
TOPIC: *JESUS*
(Gk. Iesous)
SUB-TOPIC: *THE NAZARENE*
Text: Matthew 2:23(NKJV)
There have been two major explanations of this biblical mystery. Some have traced the origin of the word *Nazarene* to the Hebrew word for *branch* or *shoot*.
The word Branch is used by the prophets to speak of the coming Messiah. For example, Isaiah 11:1 states that the Messiah would come out of Jesse's "roots", as a "Branch" (Isaiah 53:2). Like a tree that had been cut down, the royal line of David had almost been destroyed in the Babylonian captivity; yet a twig would grow out of the stump.
This is *Jesus, a descendant of David and the King of Kings*.
