Growing up in Nazareth

Jesus grew up in Nazareth, a small village in Galilee, with Mary and with Joseph, who was a carpenter. At twelve, on a visit to the temple in Jerusalem, his parents found him talking with the teachers, who were amazed at his answers.

And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.

Luke 2:39-52 · Read it in the Bible

Did you know? That is why he was called “Jesus of Nazareth”. It was so small a village that someone asked: “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?”
