Bible Question (short): RC, Was Jesus a Nazarite (Num 6:1-21)? |
Question (full): Scripture ... Num 6:1-21; Jdg 13:4-7; 1 Sa 1:11; Matt 2:23, 26:29; Mark 5:41; Luke 1:15; John 2:1-10, 4:46, 19:30; Acts 21:24 ... RC, time for a Bible lesson. You are the one misinformed about a Nazarite. Please read Numbers 6:1-21. What does it say? Parents were told, or promised, that their unborn sons were to follow part of the Nazarite vow (Jdg 13:4-7, 1 Sa 1:11, Luk 1:15). Acts 21:24 may be part of a Nazarite vow. As you can see being a Nazarite or taking a Nazarite vow, has nothing to do where someone was from. Matthew 2:23 and other passages tell us Jesus is a Nazarene, one from Nazareth. Mark 5:41 says He touched a body of a dead person, forbidden by a Nazarite (Num 6:6). He also drank wine (Matt 26:29, John 19:30). He make have had some earlier (John 2:1-10, 4:46) Was Jesus a Nazarite? |
