hem, then why is he called Jesus of Nazareth. Why Jesus would be from Nazareth and not Bethlehem, has led us to many questions and a lot of possible answers, such as, according to Michael Coogan, the idea that Jesus might have been from Nazareth all along. In my opinion, I see the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) to be very repetitious.

What crime has he committed?’ asked Pilate. But they shouted all the louder, ‘Crucify ...
