Understanding the Life & Ministry of Jesus
Dr. John De Lancey Introduction It has been said, “the roots of Christianity run deep into Hebrew soil.”1 All that we read in the Gospels about the life and ministry of Jesus of
Nazareth has a Hebraic context. Hence, “the place to begin searching for Jesus is in the world in which he grew. His roots were first-century Judaism.”2 This historical reality has been under-valued and to a certain extent suppressed and ignored, obscuring a plain view of whom Jesus was and is to us today.

What is Nazarene Judaism
The first believers in Yeshua were a Jewish sect known as
Nazarenes or in Hebrew Netzarim (Acts 11:19; 24:5). The church
father Jerome (4th Cent.) described these Nazarenes as those who accept Messiah in such a way that they do not cease to observe the old Law. (Jerome; On. Is. 8:14).
