Biblical Places in This Verse

Nazaré
city · Israel
Nazaré foi a cidade natal de Jesus, onde Ele cresceu após o retorno da família do Egito. Era uma aldeia pequena e obscura na Galileia — tão insignificante que Natanael perguntou: 'Pode vir alguma coisa boa de Nazaré?' (João 1:46). No entanto, foi em Nazaré que Jesus voltou para ler Isaías 61 na sinagoga.
