Okay, explain what prophet’s writing Matthew is relying on in Matthew 2:23.

Matthew 2:23
... and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.


Why?

what's to 'explain'?

Though I'll give it a try if you wish...



The Catholic church, based in Rome, did a very poor job of compiling the Bible.

It left out some prophet's writings.

“The Catholic church, based in Rome, did a very poor job of compiling the Bible.”

No such verse - mentioning “Nazarene” in the prophets - appears in any Protestant Bible either.

“It left out some prophet’s writings.”

Then so did the KJV, NIV, CEV, TLV, NKJV and several dozen other Protestant versions - all of them in fact.
