Jueces 13:22 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 13:22

And Manoah said unto his wife
Being risen from the ground, where they fell on their faces:

we shall surely die, because we have seen God;
by which it appears that he not only believed him to be an angel, and not a man, but a divine Person; for though angels are sometimes called "Elohim", the word here used, yet good men were not wont to fear death, or conclude they should die on sight of an angel; but their notion was, that an appearance of God to them was death, and were surprised when it did not follow, ( Genesis 32:30 ) ( Judges 6:22 Judges 6:23 ) ( Exodus 33:20 ) .

Jueces 13:22 In-Context

20 Mientras la llama subía desde el altar hacia el cielo, el ángel del SEÑOR ascendía en la llama. Al ver eso, Manoa y su esposa se postraron en tierra sobre sus rostros.
21 Y el ángel del SEÑOR no se volvió a aparecer a Manoa y a su esposa. Entonces Manoa se dio cuenta de que aquel era el ángel del SEÑOR.
22 —¡Estamos condenados a morir! —le dijo a su esposa—. ¡Hemos visto a Dios!
23 Pero su esposa respondió:—Si el SEÑOR hubiera querido matarnos, no nos habría aceptado el holocausto ni la ofrenda de cereales de nuestras manos; tampoco nos habría mostrado todas esas cosas ni anunciado todo esto.
24 La mujer dio a luz un niño y lo llamó Sansón. El niño creció y el SEÑOR lo bendijo.
