The Branch out of dry ground is the Messiah - Christ
JD, same one as the rod from the stem of Jesse (his
genealogical line) with same character ie: He shall not
judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the
hearing of His ears, but with righteousness he shall
judge the poor and decide with equity the meek of
the earth. The exact same one who is referred to
in Matthew 2:23.

Actually, Judy -- Caroline is
making a good point. You have argued against many times that
scriptures "says what it says."
Yet, you are not willing accept your own
demands. I am not aware that anyone makes your argument. Apparently, "Nazarene"
has something to do with
"branch," "sprout," or "shoot" and may be tied to to Is
11:1. I don't know --
going to Numbers 6:2 doesn't come close, for
me. Jd

Yes they did; it is Numbers 6:2. He is prophet, priest, king and priests separate themselves.
Matt 2:23 is not specifically just a place name. jt

But did they find the OT verse that Matthew was referring to in Matthew 2:23 when he wrote:
"and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets:
"He will be called a Nazarene." Love, Caroline
