(23) and came to live in a city called Nazareth. In order to fulfill that spoken through the prophets saying, "HE WILL BE CALLED A NATZRATI."
The F.O.G*
[23] There they settled in a town called Nazareth, fulfilling yet another prophetic thread that the Messiah would be called a Nazarene. In this humble village, far from the powers that sought His life, Jesus would grow from child to man.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and coming, he dwelt in a city named Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophets, that ‘A Nazarene he shall be called.’
