What is the family name of Jesus?
There were no surnames at the time. They did not come into being for over a thousand years after Jesus died. He would have been known as Jesus, son of Joseph, or Jesus of Nazareth.
What was The Resurrection?
That was when Jesus of Nazareth came back to life a few days after being executed by the Roman government.
Can you explain the significance of Jesus being baptized in the Bible"?
The significance of Jesus being baptized in the Bible is that it marked the beginning of his public ministry and symbolized his identification with humanity, his humility, and his obedience to God's will.
Where Jesus Christ lived from age 12 to age 30?
After the account of Jesus' being found reasoning in the temple at age 12, Luke 2:50 says, "Then He went down with them [Joseph and Mary] and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them..." This would indicate that He lived in Nazareth during those intervening years.
Who else besides Jesus was called King of Kings?
No one, unless you would consider His father, who is the King of Kings, like Jesus, due to the fact that they are the same being.
Did Mary and Joseph live in Jerusalem?
Bethlehem was where Jesus was born. Mary and Joseph traveled there to take part in a nationwide census. Shortly after Jesus was born, the family traveled back home to Nazareth.
What exactly is St Joseph famous for?
Joseph was the earthly father of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. The Catholic Church has called him a Saint for being such. He was famous because of his relation to Jesus Christ.
Where was Joseph's other siblings of Jesus born?
Since the family wasn't described as being rich and it was common for families to remain in their birth towns/villages, Jesus' other siblings were probably born in Nazareth.

When the Bible calls Jesus a Nazarene is it referring to his home town or a sect he belonged to?
The simplest explanation is that Jesus was called a Nazarene because he grew up in Nazareth.Matthew's Gospel explains (Matthew 2:23) that after the flight to Egypt, the young family did not return to their former home in Bethlehem but instead turned aside and travelled to Galilee, where they settled in Nazareth, thereby fulfilling a prophecy that Jesus be called a Nazarene: "And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene."Scholars have long noted that there is no prophecy anywhere in the Old Testament that could associate Jesus with being called a Nazarene. With further research on the history of the gospels, we now know that Matthew was largely based on Mark's Gospel. Mark, in the original Greek, does not refer to 'Jesus of Nazareth' (as he is described in the later gospels) , but frequently refers to him as a 'Nazarene' (Ναζαρηνοῦ) - although most English translations change this to 'of Nazareth' in line with the other gospels.Mark does not describe Nazareth as the home town of Jesus, but Mark 1:9 does mention Jesus as starting his baptismal journey from Nazareth of Galilee, although this reference to Nazareth of Galilee reads awkwardly and could arguably be an insertion. On the other hand, Acts 24:5 refers to Paul as a leader of a sect called 'Nazarenes', so presumably there was a Jewish sect of that name. Reading this gospel in the absence of the later gospels and Christian tradition that says Jesus grew up in Nazareth, it is open to us to believe that the term Nazarene was a reference to a cult of which Jesus was a member.When the author of Matthew wrote of prophets having called Jesus a Nazarene, his source was Mark's Gospel and his intention was to explain why Joseph and Mary had to take Jesus to Nazareth ("that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene"). Matthew links this description of Jesus as a Nazarene with the town of Nazareth and thereafter uses the term 'Jesus of Nazareth'. In this gospel, 'Nazarene' means that Jesus had lived in Nazareth.
Where did Mary and Joseph lived before Jesus was born?
AnswerIt is very unclear where Mary and Joseph lived before Jesus was born. The only sources we have on this are the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, which appear to be in mutual disagreement.Luke's Gospel makes it clear that, in the author's view, Mary and Joseph lived in Nazareth but travelled to Bethlehem where Jesus was born in a stable, there being no room in the inn. The young couple soon afterwards took Jesus to Jerusalem and then returned peacefully to Nazareth. There are some historical problems with this account, that make it seem doubtful.Matthew's Gospel seems to say that Mary and Joseph lived in a house in Bethlehem before Jesus was born. Afterr the visit by the magi, they fled to Egypt and remained there until the death of King Herod. They then returned to Judea, implying that this was indeed their home but, being warned by God in a dream, turned aside and travelled to Galilee, where they then dwelt in a city called Nazareth. From this, it seems at least unlikely that the young couple lived in Nazareth.We do not know where Mary and Joseph lived before Jesus was born.
As infant Jesus and family had to flee Nazareth where did they go first?
A:there is no suggestion that Jesus and his family had to flee Nazareth. In fact, Luke's Gospel says that the young family travelled peacefully from Nazareth to Jerusalem and back every year, for the Passover (Luke 2:41). It is in Matthew's Gospel that the young family had to flee, but this is a different story. We can see from the text that Bethlehem is their home town, and in fact we will see that they had probably never heard of Nazareth. After the birth of Jesus, they fled from Bethlehem to Egypt, for fear of King Herod. After Herod's death, they began the return journey to their home in Bethlehem but, being warned in a dream of further danger there, turned aside and travelled to Galilee where they settled in a city called Nazareth (Matthew 2:23).
