And he went and lived in a city called Nazareth, that what was spoken by the prophets might be fulfilled: "He shall be called a Nazarene."
Matthew 2:23 English Standard Version
I've never read a Bible translation, footnote or commentary that has been able to place this quote. Maybe it's because everyone is assuming the quote would be from the Old Testament prophetic books, when in fact Matthew was just quoting another old text that is now lost to us. I'm really curious.
