Best Answer

Jesus is thought to have been brought up as a child in Nazareth. However, Nazareth does not play a role in the mission of Jesus. He found that he could not do wonders there because of the unbelief of those with whom he grew up, only heal a few sick.

Mark is the first New Testament gospel to be written, and in the original Greek it always calls Jesus 'the Nazarene', never 'Jesus of Nazareth'. We know that Matthew's Gospel was substantially based on Mark, which is is why Matthew 2:23 says that Joseph and Mary took Jesus to Nazareth "that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene." Apart from Mark's Gospel, there is no other prophetic reference to Jesus as a Nazarene.

I won't say that it is that important, but rather, one of the significant places for the Christians. It is because Nazareth is the hometown of Jesus Christ

Nazareth is the home town of Jesus. He grew up there and later returned only to be spurned by those who knew him best.
