No, He didn't. In fact, the gift of prophecy was integral to the growth and edification of the first-century church. Ephesians 4:11, 12 - And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, Romans 12:6 - Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; 1 Corinthians 13:2 - And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

How did Jesus become a Nazarene?
The earliest New Testament gospel to be written was Mark's Gospel, which (in the original Greek language) only refers to Jesus as a Nazarene and never mentions Nazareth as his home town. These references are typically translated into English as 'Jesus of Nazareth', but this does not reflect the original manuscripts. We do not know why Mark refers to Jesus in this way, but it may be that Jesus was associated with the sect known as the Nazarenes.Matthew's Gospel was apparently written in the 80s of the first century, and was substantially based on Mark's Gospel. Its author chose to identify Jesus with Nazareth, so that Matthew 2:23 says, "And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene." There is no known Old Testament reference to which the author could have been referring and his 'prophets' is more likely to be a reference to Mark's Gospel. In any case, this is an explanation why the young family settled in Nazareth, not why Jesus was called a Nazarene.

What does Jesus mean amount the elect?
Jesus mentions the "elect" in Matthew 24:22-24 where he says "..but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened" and he talks about the false prophets who shall "deceive the very elect." He also states in Luke 18:7 "God shall avenge his own elect." Other words often used to describe people whom are in God's plans to bring salvation to His people are chosen, predestinate, foreordain and called. If you could substitute "elect" with "chosen" in the passages in Matthew 24:22-24, it would be that much more clear to the reader.
Why would pilgrims want to go to Bethlehem?
Because Bethlehem was the birthplace of Jesus. Jesus was the reincarnation of Moses and many more prophets in the past. However, Mecca is equally as important because Mecca was the birthplace of Mohammed and Mohammed was the reincarnation of Jesus. The Awareness [conscious mind] of Mohammed is the same Awareness [conscious mind] of not only of Jesus but many prophets in the distant past. Reincarnation is controlled by another Dimension and that dimension is where our Awarness [conscious mind] originates.
