Crossword Genius

Believer from Nazareth in dungeon (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hindu

'believer' is the definition.
(believer in Hinduism)

'from nazareth in dungeon' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'HINDU' can be found hidden inside 'nazareth in dungeon'.

(Other definitions for hindu that I've seen before include "Member of religious group" , "Religious believer" , "Native of India" , "Believer in an Indian religion" , "Brahma is one of his gods" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Times.
