ntpd error on a bridged network

We replaced an old apple router with a Linksys Velop router. The apple 
router was behind a Verizon router and we used DHCP from Verizon on the 
apple device. To duplicate the setup we configured the Linksys in bridge 
mode.

ntpd starts with the error:
    ntpd: error resolving pool 0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org: Name does not resolve (8)

however:

    host -t a 0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org
    0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org has address 174.53.169.69
    0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org has address 192.241.155.186
    0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org has address 38.229.53.9
    0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org has address 38.229.57.9

    ping -c 2 0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org

    /etc/resolv.conf

Other than ntpd I see no DNS or connectivity issues. So far the time has 
been holding at 2 seconds difference
from the servers not on the office LAN.
