The origin of the word Nazareth (Natzrat or Natzeret in Hebrew; al – Nasira or al Naeriyye in Arabi) dates back to the meaning of “to flower”, as Sang Girolamo observed, but also means “to keep watch”. The geographical location of this city in Lower Galilee confirms its role as an observation point. Nazareth is located along the most southern side of the hilly area that descends from Lebanon, at an elevated position above the opposed plain of Jezreel, the valley mentioned several times in tbe Bible and also known by its Greek name Esdrelon, that is about 350 meterrs above sea level. However, for centureis Nazareth has resided in the hearts of pilgrims and travellers as “the flower of Galilee”, holding the memory of the dialogue between the archangel Gabriel and Mary. By saying “yes” the young woman transformed the unknown village to the location of “here the Word became flesh”, of the Son of God who became man, with the fruit of the Virgin’s breast that became flower, as proclaimed Bernardo di Chiaravalle in his comment about the mystery of Nazareth.
