This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
As Manoah had not yet recognised in the man the angel of the Lord, as is observed by way of explanation in Jdg 13:16, he wished, like Gideon (Jdg 6:18), to give a hospitable entertainment to the man who had brought him such joyful tidings, and therefore said to him, “Let us detain thee, and prepare a kid for thee.” The construction לְפָנֶיךְ נַעֲשֶׂה is a pregnant one: “prepare and set before thee.” On the fact itself, see Jdg 6:19.
