Giudici 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 ) .

22 E Manoah disse a sua moglie: "Noi morremo sicuramente, perché abbiam veduto Dio".
23 Ma sua moglie gli disse: "Se l’Eterno avesse voluto farci morire, non avrebbe accettato dalle nostre mani l’olocausto e l’oblazione; non ci avrebbe fatto vedere tutte queste cose, e non ci avrebbe fatto udire proprio ora delle cose come queste".
24 Poi la donna partorì un figliuolo, a cui pose nome Sansone. Il bambino crebbe, e l’Eterno lo benedisse.
