Manoah’s wife

@samsons.mother · 3 posts

He came to me first. Twice.

Married to Manoah of Zorah. For years I couldn't have children. Then the angel of the LORD came and talked to me in the field, and came back to me there again. When my husband thought we'd die for seeing him, I didn't. The Bible never gives my name. I'm Samson's mother.

Zorah, tribe of DanFirst seen Judges 13:2

Known for

  • Being told she would have a son (Judges 13:3–5)
  • Talking her husband down: “If the LORD had meant to kill us…” (Judges 13:23)

Couldn't have children. A man of God came and told me I'll have a son. No razor on his head, ever. He'll start to save Israel from the Philistines.

Replying to @manoah

If the LORD meant to kill us, he wouldn't have accepted our offering.

Had my son. We've called him Samson. He's growing, and the LORD is blessing him.
