How do we know that Jesus fulfilled the prophecies about the Nazarite?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is identified as the Nazarite who fulfills Old Testament prophecies through His life and sacrificial death.

The title 'Nazarene' emphasizes Jesus’ separation and consecration to God, as seen in Matthew 2:23, which states that He shall be called a Nazarene. This reflects not only His earthly upbringing in Nazareth but also His role as One set apart for the atonement of sin. As a Nazarite, He embodies the fulfillment of the law and the prophets, serving as the ultimate sacrifice for sin. Throughout His life and ministry, Jesus lived in complete obedience to God's law, showing that He is indeed the perfect fulfillment of all that was anticipated in the Hebrew Scriptures regarding the separated ones. His vow, made before the foundation of the world, ensures that He is the promised Savior who redeems His people from sin.
