/ˌnazəˈriːn/,

/ˈnazəriːn/, U.S.

/ˈnæzəˌrin/

Forms: Middle English Nazaren, Middle English Nazaryen, Middle English 1600s– Nazarene.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Nazarenus.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin Nazarenus follower of Jesus of Nazareth, Christian (Vulgate; also as adjective, early 5th cent.) < Hellenistic Greek Ναζαρηνός inhabitant of Nazareth < Ναζαρέτ Nazareth, a town of ancient Palestine, now in Israel ( < Aramaic nāṣraṯ ) + -ηνός -ene suffix, after Aramaic nāṣrāyā (see Nazarean n. and adj.).Hellenistic Greek Ναζαρηνός is used in the Gospels of Mark and Luke to refer to Jesus. Following the practice of the Vulgate, the English versions of the New Testament generally use Nazarene also to render Hellenistic Greek Ναζωραῖος (see Nazarean n. and adj.), used both of Jesus and his followers. Hence the word is used to translate Ναζωραῖος when denoting a member of an early Christian or Jewish sect. In sense A. 5 and B. 4 after German Nazarener, the nickname (first attested in the derivative Nazarenerschaft in a letter of 1819: see F. Noack Deutsch. Leben in Rom (1907) 376) of the Lukasbund, a group of painters formed in Vienna in 1809, and working in Rome from 1810. In form Nazaryen (see quot. 1481 at sense B. 1) after Middle French Nazarien (see Nazarean n. and adj.). Compare Old English Nazarenisc (adjective and noun), in senses A. 1 and B. 2.
