Jueces 13:6 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 13:6

Then the woman came and told her husband
To whom it would be joyful news, as it was to her:

saying, a man of God came unto me;
he appeared in an human form, and therefore she calls him a man; and by his mien and deportment, and the message he brought, she concluded he was a man of God, that is, a prophet; by which name such persons went in those days; and so the Targum calls him a prophet of the Lord: but it is a mere conceit of Ben Gersom that it was Phinehas, who in all probability was not living; besides what is after related shows that this was a divine Person, and no other than the Son of God:

and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very
terrible;
for though she might never have seen an angel, yet it being a common notion that angels were very illustrious, of a beautiful form and of a shining countenance, and very majestic, she compares the man she saw to one; for by being "very terrible", is not meant that he was frightful, and struck her with horror, but venerable and majestic, which filled her with admiration:

but I asked him not whence he [was], neither told he me his name;
this she added to prevent her husband's inquiring about his name and place of abode; and perhaps, as she came along, she reflected on herself that she did not ask those questions; which might be owing to the surprise she was in, partly at the awful and venerable appearance of the person, and partly at the joyful news he brought her; though it seems as if she did ask his name, but he did not tell her what it was.

Jueces 13:6 In-Context

4 Ahora, pues, mira que ahora no bebas vino, ni sidra, ni comas cosa inmunda

5 Porque tú concebirás, y darás a luz un hijo; y no subirá navaja sobre su cabeza, porque aquel niño nazareo será de Dios desde el vientre, y él comenzará a salvar a Israel de mano de los filisteos

6 Y la mujer vino y lo contó a su marido, diciendo: Un varón de Dios vino a mí, cuyo aspecto era como el aspecto de un ángel de Dios, terrible en gran manera; y no le pregunté de dónde ni quién era, ni tampoco él me dijo su nombre

7 Y me dijo: He aquí que tú concebirás, y darás a luz un hijo; por tanto, ahora no bebas vino, ni sidra, ni comas cosa inmunda; porque este niño desde el vientre será nazareo de Dios hasta el día de su muerte

8 Y oró Manoa al SEÑOR, y dijo: Señor mío, yo te ruego que aquel varón de Dios que enviaste, regrese ahora a nosotros, y nos enseñe lo que debemos hacer con el niño que ha de nacer
