Christ was born in Bethlehem of Judea, Mat_2:1; but his father and mother lived at Nazareth, a city of Galilee, Luk_2:4,39, where he lived with them, Luk_2:51; hence he was called Jesus of Nazareth, from the place where he lived, and most ordinarily conversed. Mat_21:11Mat_26:71Mar_1:24 10:47 14:67 16:6. Christ replies that he was the man; and it is particularly noted, that Judas was with this armed company.
