What does Nazirutha mean?
Nazirutha is a Mandaic, or Aramaic-Hebrew, term meaning Nazorean Gnosis. Mandaic-Aramaic is an ancient middle eastern language once spoken by Yeshua, or Jesus, the Nazorean.
What is meant by “Nazorean gnosis”
Nazorean refers to the ancient people called the “Nazorayya”. The term means “people of the Truth” or “those with secret knowledge”. Gnosis is a Greek term which means personal acquaintance with the Truth. Nazorean Gnosis is then a system of enlightenment fostered by the Nazorean people.
Could somebody throw some light on this?
Did the Gnostic esseens of Egypt helped Joseph and Mary hide away from Herod?
The name “Nazrani” we also adorn. Are we also esseens?
