He will say “Jesus of Nazareth.” He will not say “Jesus Christ.” Then he mocks the carpenter.
That is not a lack of information. Demons know the name. In Mark 5:7 one cries, “Jesus, thou Son of the most high God.”
James 2:19 says they believe, and tremble. What they will not do is confess Him as Lord.
“Is not this the carpenter?” Mark 6:3
The men of Nazareth said it as an insult. So does he. The carpenter is the one through whom all things were made.
“God also hath highly exalted Him, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow… and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.” Philippians 2:9–11
They can mock the trade.
They still bow to the name.
