Jueces 13:3 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 13:3

And the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman
According to Josephus F11, it was in a plain without the city; and that he appeared in the form of a man is certain from ( Judges 13:6 ) but was not a mere man, a prophet of the Lord, nor a created angel, but the uncreated one, the Angel of the covenant, the Son and Word of God, who often appeared in an human form; since his name is said to be "Wonderful", and he to do wonderful things, and is called "Jehovah", ( Judges 13:18 Judges 13:23 ) ,

and said unto her, behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not;
barren at that time, and so she had been ever since she was married to that time; and this is observed, that it might appear the more wonderful that she should after this have a child:

but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son;
which to do, must be ascribed to divine power, that one in her circumstances should bear a son; as the prediction of it was owing to divine omniscience, and a proof of it.

Jueces 13:3 In-Context

1 Una vez más los israelitas hicieron lo que ofende al SEÑOR. Por eso él los entregó en manos de los filisteos durante cuarenta años.
2 Cierto hombre de Zora, llamado Manoa, de la tribu de Dan, tenía una esposa que no le había dado hijos porque era estéril.
3 Pero el ángel del SEÑOR se le apareció a ella y le dijo: «Eres estéril y no tienes hijos, pero vas a concebir y tendrás un hijo.
4 Cuídate de no beber vino ni ninguna otra bebida fuerte, ni tampoco comas nada impuro,
5 porque concebirás y darás a luz un hijo. No pasará la navaja sobre su cabeza, porque el niño va a ser nazareo, consagrado a Dios desde antes de nacer. Él comenzará a librar a Israel del poder de los filisteos».
