Of course! Nazarene Judaism was the original faith of Yeshua's disciples. Today it would reflect modern elements of Messianic Judaism. Here is an excerpt on them.Never heard of it, could some details be shared with people who didn't?![]()

"They use not only the New Testament but the Old Testament as
well,: as the Jews do. For unlike the previous sectarians, they do not
repudiate the legislation, the prophets, and the books Jews call
”Writings.” They have no different ideas, but confess everything exactly as the Law proclaims it and in the Jewish fashion-except for their belief in Christ, if you please! For they acknowledge both the resurrection of the dead and the divine creation of all things , and declare that God is one, and that his Son is Jesus Christ.They are trained to a nicety in Hebrew. For among them the entire Law, the prophets, and the so-called Writings-I mean the poetic books, Kings, Chronicles, Esther and all the rest-are read in Hebrew, as they surely are by Jews. They are different from Jews, and different from Christians, only in the following. They disagree with Jews because they have come to faith in Christ; but since they are still fettered by the Law-circumcision, the Sabbath, and the rest they are not in accord with Christians."
-Epiphanius; Panarion 29
