The teaching concerning the qualities of the inner nature of the soul which was associated with the ancient Nazarene teaching and also with the later Netzerism, was cultivated and spread by Netzer. This pupil was in particular chosen to be the founder of a little colony. Many such colonies existed in Palestine, in each of which some special branch of the Essene teaching was cultivated, and Netzer's teaching was fostered more especially in a little colony, which led a secret existence in a little place named in the Bible, Nazareth or Netzereth.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Stages of downward penetration of divine nature into a human individuality","site_heading":"Divine Descent and the Two Jesus Children","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Denn dieser Jeshu ben Pandira, der den Okkultisten ziemlich genau bekannt ist, hatte fünf Schüler, von denen jeder einen besonderen Zweig der gemeinsamen großen Lehre des Jeshu ben Pandira übernahm und für sich dann fortsetzte. Diese fünf Schüler des Jeshu ben Pandira trugen folgende Namen: Mathai, Nakai, der dritte Schüler hatte, weil er besonders aus der Klasse der Nezer war, geradezu den Namen Nezer, dann Boni und Thona. Diese fünf Schüler oder Jünger des Jeshu ben Pandira, der ein Jahrhundert vor unserer Zeitrechnung in der schon erzählten Weise den Märtyrertod wegen Gotteslästerung und Häresie erlitten hat, pflanzten sozusagen in fünf verschiedenen Zweigen fort die große, umfassende Lehre des Jeshu ben Pandira. Insbesondere wurde - so lehrt die geisteswissenschaftliche Forschung — nach dem Tode des Jeshu ben Pandira die Lehre von der Zubereitung des Blutes für den zu erscheinenden Jesus des Matthäus-Evangeliums fortgepflanzt durch den Schüler Mathai. Und jene Lehre von der inneren Seelenverfassung, welche mit dem alten Nasireat, aber auch mit dem neueren Nezertum zusammenhing, wurde fortgesetzt von dem anderen großen Schüler des Jeshu ben Pandira, von Nezer. Und Nezer war insbesondere dazu ausersehen, eine kleine Kolonie zu gründen. Solcher Kolonien der Essäer gab es in Palästina eine ganze Anzahl, und in einer jeden wurde ein besonderer Zweig des Essäertums gepflegt. Das Nezertum, das besonders der Schüler Nezer weiter zu pflegen hatte, sollte vor allem in jener Kolonie gepflegt werden, die ein geheimnisvolles Dasein führte und im Grunde einen kleinen Ort nur bildete in der damaligen Zeit, in der Kolonie, die dann in der Bibel den Namen Nazareth empfing. Dort in Nazareth — Nezereth — war eine Essäerkolonie angelegt von Nezer, dem Schüler des Jeshu ben Pandira. Da waren Leute - in ziemlich strengem Geheimnis lebten sie -, die das alte Nasireat pflegten. Daher gab es, nachdem jene anderen Vorgänge sich vollzogen hatten, über die ich noch zu sprechen habe, nach der Übersiedelung nach Ägypten und der Rückkehr von dort für den Jesus des Matthäus-Evangeliums nichts Näherliegendes, als daß erin die Atmosphäre dieses Nezertums gebracht wurde. Das wird auch angedeutet mit dem entsprechenden Wort des Matthäus-Evangeliums nach der Rückkehr aus Ägypten: Er wurde in das Fleckchen Nazareth gebracht, «auf daß erfüllet würde, das da gesagt ist durch die Propheten: Er soll ein Nazaräer werden» (Matth. 2, 23). - Das ist in der verschiedensten Weise dann übersetzt worden, weil die Übersetzer den Sinn nicht recht kannten und keiner so recht wußte, was damit gemeint war. Darum handelte es sich: daß hier eine Essäerkolonie war, wo der Jesus zunächst heranwachsen sollte.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":446,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/123/1910-09-06/p021"}],"english":["GA 123/1910-09-06/p021","GA 123/1910-09-06/p022","GA 123/1910-09-06/p023","GA 123/1910-09-06/p024"],"method":"reader","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":446,"en_words":331,"ratio":0.74,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.9,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5403,"original_word_count":5980,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"RSPC1946","book_title":"The Gospel of St. Matthew (1946)","publisher":"Rudolf Steiner Publishing Co.","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA123/English/RSPC1946/19100906p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"source_says_translator_unknown","note":"The source page itself says the translator is unknown.
