One must note that when Claudius was emperor of Rome,[1] Peter the Apostle ordained Evodius in
Antioch,[2] and the formerly-known Nazarites and Galileans came to be called Christians.[3]
Greek Original:Ναζιραῖος: ὁ θεῷ κεχαρισμένος, καὶ ἀφιερωμένος: ὁ μοναχός. ἰστέον δέ, ὅτι ἐπὶ Κλαυδίου βασιλέως Ῥώμης Πέτρου τοῦ ἀποστόλου χειροτονήσαντος Εὐόδιον ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ, μετωνομάσθησαν οἱ πάλαι λεγόμενοι Ναζιραῖοι καὶ Γαλιλαῖοι Χριστιανοί.

Antioch after Peter:

[3] For the Nazarites (Heb. nezerim, "separate") in the Old Testament see e.g. Numbers 6:1-21; also web address 2. In the present context (quoted from
chi 523) there seems to be confusion between "Nazarite" and "Nazarene" (
nu 9).
