:[[Mr 1:9]] ΒΆ And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
Galilee was home to Jews and Gentiles. The name means "circuit" but also is the rod portion of a door hinge. A rod represents God's authority as a judge.
Why is the mention of Nazareth of Galilee important to the fulfillment of prophecy? The predominant belief was that the 'good work' of the Messiah would come from Bethlehem. <ref>[[Mic 5:2]] But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, [though] thou be little among the thousands of Judah, [yet] out of thee shall he come forth unto me [that is] to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth [have been] from of old, from everlasting.</ref> Nathaniel could not believe the Messiah could come from there. <ref>[[Joh 1:46]] And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.</ref>
But the Greeks, interpret things backwards. Reading Nathaniel's words they presume that Nazareth had a stigma on it for some reason: Backwoods, Boondocks, Hicksville, Trailer Park territory, Home of the rednecks, Illiterate, Backwards, Behind the times, Dead end.
Mark was concerned with telling how Jesus fulfilled prophecy. Nazareth is not mentioned in the OT. Mark must have a riddle in mind. Galilee Perhaps the same riddles as Matthew. <ref>[[Mt 2:23]] And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was home to Jews and Gentiles. The name means "circuit" but also is spoken by the rod portion of a door hinge. A rod represents God's authority as prophets, He shall be called a judgeNazarene.</ref>

Jesus had to be baptized to fulfill all righteousness. <ref>[[Mt 3:15]] And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer [it to be so] now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.</ref>. He had to be fully identified with men as the Kinsman Redeemer. He had to be fully man. <ref>[[Php 2:7]] But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:</ref>
He immersed himself in his incarnationamong his people; fully identified with them.
