Nazareth was a small, unremarkable village in the hills of Galilee, so lowly that Nathanael's first reaction to the news of a Messiah from there was skepticism: can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? It appears in no Old Testament text and had no claim to fame — which is precisely the point.
It was here that the angel appeared to Mary, and here that Jesus grew up in Joseph's carpentry shop, living an ordinary hidden life for some thirty years. He was known ever after as Jesus of Nazareth — the title even nailed to his cross. That God's Son spent most of his earthly life in a forgettable town dignifies every quiet, unnoticed life lived faithfully before him.
Nazareth in Scripture
And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
