Question

Jesus was born in ______ in Galilee.

Answer 1

Jesus was born in Nazareth in Galilee.

Explanation:

Jesus is described in the Gospels and related summaries as having grown up in Nazareth in the region of Galilee, so “Nazareth” fills the blank. However, the nativity narratives in Matthew and Luke place his birth in Bethlehem (Judea) during the census under Caesar Augustus, after which his family lived in Nazareth hence he’s commonly called “Jesus of Nazareth.”
