This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jdg_13:7 But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean [thing]: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death.
Ver. 7. Behold, thou shalt conceive.] Had her husband been jealous, as Josephus wrongfully reporteth him, she would hardly have told him this story. But had not she been barren, the angel had not now been sent to her. Afflictions to the saints are advantageous.
From the womb to the day of his death.] By God’s special designation and command. So was John Baptist. This was not ordinary.
