Jesus called a Nazorean -- Apostle Paul's speech : Acts 26: 6 - 9

NRSV updated edition, 2021

And now I stand here on trial

on account of my hope in

the promise made by God to

our ancestors, a promise that

our 12 tribes hope to attain,

as they earnestly worship day

and night.  It is for this hope,

Your Excellency (addressing

King Herod Agrippa), that

I am accused by Jews!  Why

is it thought incredible by any

of you that God raises the dead? !

Indeed, I myself was convinced

that I ought to do many things

against the name of Jesus of

Nazareth / [Greek: the Nazorean].
