Judges 13:10-25
husband ..... man ...... other <0376> [Behold.]
day <03117> [the other day.]
{Byyom,} rather, "in this day," or "to-day," for the word other is not in the original, and it is probably that the angel appeared in the morning and evening of the same day.
child <04941 05288> [How shall we order the child. Heb. what shall be the manner of the child?]
<04639> [how shall we do unto him. or, what shall he do? Heb. what shall be his work?]
drink <08354> [neither.]
commanded <06680> [all that I.]

Manoah, not knowing the quality of his guest, wished to do this as act of hospitality.

As I am a spiritual being, I subsist not by earthly food; and cannot partake of your bounty.

cannot comprehend <06383> [secret. or, wonderful.]
It was because his name was secret that Manoah wished to know it. But the angel does not say it was secret, but {hoo pailee,} "it is wonderful;" the very character given to the Messiah: "His name shall be called {pailai,} Wonderful," Isa 9:6.
took <03947> [took.]

He acted according to His Name: He, being wonderful, performed wonders; probably causing fire to arise out of the rock and consume the sacrifice, and then ascended in the flame.
