Nazor-aion, The disciple, The Way, were the earlier names before it was called Christian

The the earliest name for the New Covenant body was Nazoraion, They (the soldiers)  answered him, Iesoun the Nazoraion. Ἰησοῦν τὸν Ναζωραῖον  G3480 Jesus saith unto them, I am he… Yahoshua or Iesoun or Jesus confirmes his name in John 18:5, 7,  Also to the Apostle Paul, ‘Acts 22:8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Iesous the Nazoraios, whom you persecutest

John 14:4-6

Yahoshua : You know the way to the place where I am going.” Deglet Resh kaf (

said Thomas, “we do not know where You are going, so how can we know the way?”

Jesus answered, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. If you had known Me, you would know My Father as well. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.

The Way written from Thomas https://www.marquette.edu/maqom/Gospel%20of%20Thomas%20Lambdin.pdf

The Way was blocked after Adam and Eve was driven out of the Garden of Eden. What Changed? Before there was no animal sacrifice, they ate from the garden, no blood was spilled.

Acts 24:5 The Jews called Paul the ringleader of the sect of the Nazoraion. Yahoshua or Jesus was the founder or ringleader. The name for the New Covenant believers was called The Nazoraion.

The Way, another name, It was Paul speaking here

Acts 22:4 And I persecuted this Way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.

John 13:35 By this shall all men know that y’all are my disciples if y’all love one another.

Matthew 2:23 and came and lived in a city called Nazareth (Nazaret). This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets: “He shall be called that Nazoraios to be.

Their is another prophesy that has been over looked, this prophesy comes from

Genesis 49:26 “The blessings of your father Have surpassed the blessings of my ancestors Up to the utmost bound of the age lasting (aion or olam) hills; May they be on the head of Joseph, And on the crown of the head of the one distinguished (NZR) among his brothers.
NZR in Hebrew, no vowels in early Hebrew.
Hegeomai is the  Greek  equivalent.
Verb indicative aorist middle 3rd person singular
When translating from Hebrew to Greek the NZR or Nazor and other variant spellings did not stay true instead Nzr was changed to the Greek word Hegeomai and its variant spellings. Why is this important? Because Jesus or Iesoun was The NZR-aion in Greek NZROwlam in Hebrew

John 18:5 They answered Him, “Jesus (Iesoun) the Nazarene (Nazoraion).” He said to them, “I am He.” ….
John 18:7 Therefore He again asked them, “Whom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus (Iesous) The Nazarene (Nazoraion).”

Acts 22:8 “And I answered, ‘Who are You, Lord?’ And He said to me, ‘I am Jesus (Iesous) the Nazarene (Nazoraios), whom you are persecuting. This was spoken to Paul in Hebrew,  Acts 26:14 “And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the HEBREW dialect, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’ To understand what Saul was hearing can not be found in the Greek Text, because it was not spoken in Konie  Greek,
Yahoshua was The Nazoraion, NZR-Owlam, John 18:5, 7. What does that mean?

The Greek word Nazor-ai-on translates three words. Nazor is written in Greek using the omega ω  not  omricon. Hebrew has no vowels, so it would be NZR in Hebrew.

Aion which means age it is Greek, Hebrew olam is used for the word age, or  עָלַם ` alam which means hidden

Gospel OF THE Nazoraions Ebionites and Gnostics

Yahoshua (Jesus) was The Nazor-aion (masculine)
John 18:5 They answered Him, “Iesoun the Nazoraion.” He said to them, “I am He….He was a NZR-Aion NZR-Owlam Ἰησοῦς ὁ (the)Ναζωραῖος Nazoraion masculime [Jhn 19:19 KJV] 19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put [it] on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.

Shoul read Jesus Or Iesous the = (O) Nazoraion

 Dalman, Gramm, says linguistically the transition from Nazaret to Nazoraios is difficult (BAGB) .

Jesus or Iesous or Yahoshua or Yahshua was a common name in that time, but to add Nazor- Ai-on made him unique. to be continued….The Gospel of the Nazoraion

About Nazoraion

I am a Nazoraion, that is I follow, to the best of my understing, the teaching of Yahoshua or Jesus the Nazoraion. Nazoraion, The Way The Disciples, was the name of the followers of Yahoshua until the name change at Antioch was around 37 AD. I live to the best of my ability the teachings of Yahoshua. Through the Holy Spirit. I do not follow later additions of Church teachings.

    Yahoshua was the Nazoraion
    Jesus that is Yahoshua was the Nazoraion John 18:5, 7 Acts 22:8, Nazoraion’s did not eat flesh.
    “A Nazoraion never ate meat”

    Peter in Acts 3:6 But Peter said, “I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene– walk!”

    Peter, one of the better known disciples, quoting him from the Clementine Homolies (sermons), a script that comes to us via Clemens, the head of the Roman community, and that appeared ca. 220 in Palestine. According to it,

    Peter lived on bread and olives to which he sometimes added vegetables (XII:6).

    John
    And about the disciple, John, one can read the well-known church historian, Eusibius, (ca. 300) that he “never ate meat.” (Church History II., 2:3)

    Similar things are reported about the disciple Matthew. Clemens of Alexandria (3rd century), recognized as reliable by both friends and enemies, writes about Matthew that he lived “from plants and never touched meat,”

    Paul was a Nazoraion
    Acts 24:5 “For we have found this man a real pest and a fellow who stirs up dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazoraios.

    (Paidagogos [=“The Pedagoge,” the first Christian ethics book] II, 1:16), just as the disciple Matthew, who was voted into the circle of the twelve after the death of Judas.
    And Carl Anders Skriver adds that according to writers of the 2nd century, the apostles Andrew, Philip and Thomas as well as Mark and Luke were vegetarian (p.15).

    Re: Yahoshua was The Nazoraion
    Yahoshua’s Opposition to Animal Sacrifice,

    Yahoshua’s rejection of animal sacrifice brought him into direct conflict with the Temple Priests (bankers), leading to arrest and trial under Pontius Pilate. This was how the priests got their riches, death was their income, for the priests,they used control over the people allowing fear to exploit the uninformed.

    The immediate event that led to Yahoshua’s arrest under the charge of sedition was his confrontation at the Temple. The famous scene where Yahoshua overturns the tables of the moneychangers (banker’s) is usually the focal point of tellings of the story. Yahoshua’s attack on Temple business practices such as converting foreign exchange was seen as a threat to the Sadducee Priests’ power, thus resulting in their willingness to turn him over to Pilate on the claim of fomenting rebellion against Rome.

    “Yahoshua The Nazoraion entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves.” (Matthew 21:12)

    The primary reference is to those who were “buying and selling.” What does that mean? That means the huge business of animal sales for sacrifice! The Temple was both a site of worship and a butcher shop. Yahoshua was disrupting the Temple’s primary revenue stream — the trade of animals for ritual slaughter.

    That Yahoshua was primarily concerned with animal sacrifice in the Temple is made explicitly clear in the Gospel of John:

    “When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Yahoshua went up to Jerusalem. In the Temple courts he found men selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the moneychangers and overturned their tables. To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn my Father’s house into a market!” His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.” (John 2:13-17)

    The attack on the Priests’ principal source of livelihood, the murdering of the innocient animals, can not be ignored.

    We are the living temple of the highest of all. Will the return of the Kingdom where there is no death be different for us today? Animals in the end will live without fear of death or pain. Thoughts to think about…..
