Judges 13:14

14 "Keep in mind everything I told the woman. Eat nothing that comes from the vine: Drink no wine or beer; eat no ritually unclean foods. She's to observe everything I commanded her."

Judges 13:14 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 13:14

She may not eat of anything that cometh from the vine,
&c.] Grapes moist or dried, kernels, or husks, or anything made of them:

neither let her drink wine, or strong drink;
as she was to be careful to abstain from such liquors, so her husband also is enjoined not to suffer her to drink any:

nor eat any unclean thing;
which was so by the law of Moses, and particularly by the law of the Nazarites:

all that I commanded her, let her observe;
both with respect to herself and the child.

Judges 13:14 In-Context

12 Manoah said, "So. When what you say comes true, what do you have to tell us about this boy and his work?"

13 The angel of God said to Manoah,

14 "Keep in mind everything I told the woman. Eat nothing that comes from the vine: Drink no wine or beer; eat no ritually unclean foods. She's to observe everything I commanded her."

15 Manoah said to the angel of God, "Please, stay with us a little longer; we'll prepare a meal for you - a young goat."

16 God's angel said to Manoah, "Even if I stay, I won't eat your food. But if you want to prepare a Whole-Burnt-Offering for God, go ahead - offer it!" Manoah had no idea that he was talking to the angel of God.
